    Excellent!

    Do spread the word. This thing really will be a process-in-evolution for some time to come. Feedback will be sought. A testimonials page will be built. Arguing about details of content can be done here or of course in the dedicated forum next door at FPB.

    This really should prove interesting.

    best regards

    David

    First issue just ship ship shipped!

    I handled copies at the Boston Show.

    It looks great. And it will get only better.

    Would a digital copy be available? I'm in the UK so postage might be expensive.

    Hi,

    Fair question though I fear for the time being the answer is "no". The website is not yet set up for a password paywall. I suspect shipping won't be brutal. We do have subscribers from across the globe. Do email Paul via the Fountain Pen Journal website link in my signature space below. I can't make promises, but I doubt shipping to England would add $10 to the $25 subscription cost.

    regards

    Hi,

    You should start with the first issue. Do drop a letter to Paul. He's a very approachable fellow.

    A peek at issue 1.1 of Paul's Fountain Pen Journal. I'm happy to be a contributing editor. First issue printed about 2 months after first chat about creating the magazine. In mailboxes now in the USA

    Per Paul, next issue should be four pages longer, though with advertisers lining up (Paul is good at that sort of networking), a couple of those pages will be ads from pen people.

    There will be at least two core articles on collecting old pens.

    Still no delivery to my Canadian address of this magazine. Has anyone seen their magazine arrive yet outside of the U.S.?

    I hope soon. They were sent bulk rate, and I'm not shocked the internationals are taking bit of time. I hope the read is worth the wait.

    Oh I am confident the magazine you and Paul are helping to create will be worth the subscription price. I just so want it to arrive already.
