The regular monthly meeting of the Chicago Pen Club North Branch will be this coming Sunday, September 9. It's starting at the earlier-than-usual time of 1 pm, and will be at Reprise Coffee Roasters, 950 Green Bay Road, in Winnetka. Show, tell, buy, sell, trade or just chat. I'll have some new inks from San Francisco for people to try: three from Taccia and one from Robert Oster, via the San Francisco Pen Posse. I also picked up some test kits for us, featuring 12 different Japanese papers from Yamamoto Paper. It'll be just like going to the SF Pen Show, only with warmer weather and fewer people who know Oski the Bear.

If you've never been to our meetups, feel free to DM or email me, and I'll fill in the deets and put you on the email reminder list. We've got a great, and growing, group, and everyone is welcome to join us.
