The Temptation to Buy Everything & What I’m Learning: Analog Addicts Episode 2

Fountain Pen Day is always such a fun time in the pen community — sales, livestreams, new releases — but it can also feel like a lot. In this Analog Addicts episode, I’m talking about the temptation to buy, what Fountain Pen Weekend looked like for me, and how I’m learning to slow down and reconnect with the pens I already own. And just to be honest — I did end up buying one pen. I’ll share what I picked up today along with a couple of recent purchases. This isn’t about stopping shopping completely; it’s more about noticing when the impulse feels overwhelming and trying to stay intentional with this hobby I love! A little lighting apology: I filmed this at dusk and wanted to capture the moment as honestly as possible.
