    Default PIF: Sailor Yama-Dori

    Well, I was lucky enough to win a bottle of ink, so I'd like to PIF a bottle of ink to someone else.

    I have a nearly new bottle of Sailor Yama-dori, which is a very nice deep teal blue, recently released by Sailor. I think this even has sheen.

    You can read about it, and see swabs, here and here.

    It's a beautiful ink. I've used only one fill. I should pass this along to someone who will use it more.

    I will pay postage in the Continental US for whoever wins. I am sorry to have to limit it to the US, but overseas shipping is so expensive it's not really worth it with something heavy like ink.

    Rules: enter by posting here. I will pick the winner at random next Friday, the 24th, using one of those internet gizmos or having someone pick a number between one and X, whichever seems more fun at the time. It's open to everyone in the Continental US. Whether you have a little ink, or a lot of ink, no matter: if you'd like this ink, enter. Because I'd like to give it to someone who wants it.

    One little twist: I will give people with at least twenty (real) posts a total of two entries. (Why? Because contributing is fun, for writers and readers alike. No need to hang back; I hardly make sense most of the time, and I post.) One week should be plenty of time to get some posts in. And if you have fewer than 20 posts, no problem: you still get an entry.

    INK???!!!??? I need more ink like I need a brass-plated, Proconnesian-marble barreled Parker 51.

    However, I would like to be the person who picks the random number. I could do it, I just know it.

    I feel really bad about that, too. But I shipping overseas by USPS is very expensive now, and this is a heavy item. I am really sorry. I'll try to find something else later to PIF that I could ship anywhere.

    Good idea! You're on.

    I've now moved to the higher plane of ignoring things I don't wish to hear. It's useful in motherhood, too.
