Happy December, everyone—this is a channel update to close out 2025 and set the table for what’s coming next. I’m sharing some big news for 2026, plus a few practical updates so you know what to expect from me and the channel as we head into the new year. If you’ve been here for the pen reviews, ink tests, and long-term updates, this is the “where we’re headed” video. Before I start rolling out the annual “Best of the Year” lists (and yes, the always-spicy “Dud(s) of the Year”), I wanted to get these announcements out in the open. This is also your reminder that if you’ve got a pen, ink, paper, or accessory you want me to put through its paces, you can reach out by email or send it to my P.O. Box—because I’m always looking for more real-world stuff to test, not just the easy wins. And if you want to keep up between uploads, Instagram is still the best place to catch what I’m currently messing with.
