Pen featured in Pen World Magazine

[Jontello]

Hello everyone,

A bit over a month ago I had the urge to try and do something for Ukraine. I posted about it here on the IAP a few weeks back (Ukraine Pen Fundraiser) I decided to make a pen to raffle and donate the proceeds people working on the front lines in Ukraine. Fast forwarding one month we were able to raise over $6500 and had several other pen makers and nib meisters join this cause. It was an amazing to see the pen community step up and do good.

This article just came out. I am humbled and honored to be a part of this article that Pen World Magazine came out with in their April issue. Its an article that features 6 pen makers who used their platform in the pen community to make a small impact in what is happening in Ukraine.

The article is titled "The Pen is Mightier" it is a great article to read. All of these pen makers in this article are great people with amazing hearts. If you have not checked out their work its great stuff!

Here is the article for you all to read. If you have ever wondered where to get the scoop on what is going on in the pen world this magazine is a good place to start.

Enjoy the read!

Very good cause and alot of great pens. Glad it did well on the market. Every dollar is needed. I too want to make a pen with the theme. Have a few ideas.

Man I opened that first link and absolutely love that red and black pen. I would love to take a crack at that design.

That's awesome! I don't know if it helped much, but I did share that one on social media. Same with the Gloria pen. If that was in my budget I'd buy one myself. I love the red band and nib on that and it's another great cause to support!

Adding a link for anyone who has not seen the other one I'm referring to.

My complements on your support of the people of Ukraine. We have several Ukrainians who have settled here in the past few years. Some still have family and friends over there. I'm concerned as to where this will all end as my grandparents came from what is now Slovakia, west of Ukraine. Wouldn't be surprised that I have distant relative there.
Now, my complements on those fine pens. Thanks for sharing the thought and the fine crafting.
