Hello there from Wisconsin! My name is James and I'm a penaholic...

I started using fountain pens a few years ago and love it! Currently my "collection" consists of a Pilot Cavalier, Pilot Prera, Hero 1308, Parker IM Deluxe and a recently acquired Pelikan M200 - my first really nice pen.

I'm also big into guitars and traditional wet shaving. In my spare time I'm a semi-pro blogger on wet shaving so I'm always open to trading shave stuff for pen stuff! Other than that I'm a navy veteran, married and 2 kids. Ask away!

Welcome from Door County! I don't shave (furryface) but maybe we could sometime meet up in Appleton at [AP].

I actually didn't know AP was so close to me (in Wausau)! I think the wife is bringing me there for Fathers Day as I want a more "professional" looming pen since my Pelikan is a demonstrator

Plenty of great pens at Anderson's and almost any ink you can dream of... not to mention hanging out with Brian, Lisa and their great staff!

I made the trip to Anderson's back in October for my golden birthday. I did better than I anticipated, got out without a second mortgage. Pro tip: Bring some pocket change for the parking meters. We don't have very much paid parking on this end of the state and neither my other half or myself had any change in our pockets or in the glove box of the car, so we took a chance and came out unscathed. 50 cents will avoid that problem, however.
