Goulet Q&A Episode 37, Open Forum

I'm sorry to say that you're stuck with just me this week for Goulet Q&A. The message was sent loud and clear that you love having Rachel with me in the video, but she just couldn't work it out in her schedule to be here with me this morning. This week's theme is an Open Forum, and I always enjoy the variety of questions I receive. I ended up getting so many, I could only answer about half of what I received. But I'll be saving the rest. Enjoy!

Lamy CP1: Quick Look

The Lamy CP1 is a thin, light pen that doesn't get as much fanfare as I feel that it probably should based on the number of people I know that love using this pen. Here's a quick look at this skinny little thing.

Pilot Stargazer: Quick Look

This handsome little beauty is a pocket pen that doesn't sacrifice comfort for size. Typically when I see pocket pens it's a sure bet that it's going to mean something cheap and flimsy, but this pen is legit for around $150. Here's a glance at this under-represented pen.
