Tom and I catch up on everything going on in the last couple of weeks, including the DC Fountain Pen Supershow. Tom went on Friday and shared his experience at the show. We also talk about identity theft and a pen that Tom annoyingly cannot talk about. We'd love to read your comments and answer your pen (and fish) questions on a future episode.

Now available for pre-order, shipping August 18th! The all BENU Cat's Eye, Tiger's Eye, and Hawk's Eye Talisman! Each unique fountain pen is dedicated to a popular quartz crystal renowned for its distinctive, natural phenomenon called "chatoyancy". These minerals, highly sought-after for their optical illusions, have been surrounded by myths and legends for centuries. BENU, therefore, considered the stones a perfect fit for the talisman collection! Each pen is crafted in the corresponding mineral's color with BENU's signature splash of sparkles and comes complete with a leaflet sharing the background story. BENU is thrilled to introduce these new designs, showcasing the mesmerizing beauty and symbolism of these remarkable stones!

Coming in Mid-August, our friends at Luxury Brands of America will receive a trio of new Benu Talisman fountain pens infused with quartz crystal. Thankfully, Cat's Eye, Hawk's Eye, and Tiger's Eye are not made with real animal eyes. They only have the "cat's eye" chatoyance that people come to love and appreciate about Benu's shimmering pen designs. These new Talisman fountain pens use a #6 size Schmidt stainless steel nib, are filled by cartridge or converter, and are not limited. You can find them at your favorite Benu pen retailer (see Goldspot Pens above *hint*hint*).
