On the InCoWriMo website there is a list of people who you can write. I wrote to several of the people on that list. One of them was the president of Montblanc.
Montblanc EMAILED me back immediately. I did not give them my email address. I have shopped at the boutiques several times though. They are smart and cross referenced my name with their customer database! They had the boutique manager at the last boutique I shopped at write me back! How awesome is that! They also kindly informed me that Jan Patrick Schmitz is no longer the CEO. Mike Giannattasio has assumed that role now. (I think I wrote before the switch). In the email they requested my home address. Here's the letter I received back:
A one pound letter? That's a big letter!

They sent a beautiful leather small folio, a CD of some classical music performed by Lang Lang , a small booklet and a hand written thank you from the Chicago Boutique manager Patrick Parkey.
I was absolutely overwhelmed by the generosity and awesomeness of this gift. I have to write a couple more letters thanking both the CEO and the Boutique Manager in Chicago!
