Goulet Q&A Episode 41, Open Forum

This week's Q&A is another Open Forum with questions about how to pull nibs from pens when you're not feeling strong, what brands I wish I could carry that I don't now, and why the Pontiac Aztek is so great! Enjoy.

Lamy Logo: Quick Look

The Lamy Logo is an often-overlooked pen, but I aim to fix that with this video. It's worth checking out if you're in to a mid-priced Lamy pen that's comparable to a Safari and Al-Star, but has a cleaner, straighter look.

Goulet Q&A Episode 40, Goulet Values

After announcing our Goulet company values last week, we've gotten tremendous feedback about how we run our company. There have been a lot of great questions about some of the finer points of how we make the "Goulet Magic" happen, so Rachel and I both wanted to open up and share some of the "why" behind what our company does. Some of it is about pens, but some of it really is just about what we believe and how we choose to run our company. It's a great insight into our way of doing things. Enjoy!

Monteverde 36-Slot Pen Case

One thing I’ve found that has helped manage all this is the Monteverde 36-slot pen case. It’s pretty straight-forward, it’s a pen case that holds pen, I don’t know how to jazz it up any more than that. I do a quick look of it here, showing you how a pen case that holds pens, holds pens.

Goulet Q&A Episode 38, Open Forum

This is a long one! Rachel and I sit down together in a rather punchy mood and answer 22 fountain pen questions that are all over the place. This one will take a bit to download, but is definitely one of our more entertaining podcasts!

TWSBI 580AL and 580: What's the Difference?

TWSBI just came out with their 580AL, and here at GouletPens.com we're already getting a lot of questions about them. The #1 question is "what's the difference?"
