What's the difference between a "Stationery Fest" and a traditional pen show? Tune in this week and find out, because we had the opportunity to record Episode 6 of On The Paper Trail in front of a live audience at the inaugural San Francisco Stationery Fest! Topics include our impressions of the show, how we got into stationery in the first place, plus a Q&A with audience members in which they picked our brains about pens, inks, paper, and more. Note that in the video we were in the room with audience members and interacting with people off camera, so we have had to adjust the audio and repeat questions at times.Show Notes and LinksSan Francisco Stationery FestArkansas Pen Show Bonecrusher Studios Pens by PasqualeNagasawa at Vanness Wearingeul Testing Cards Roterfaden Taschenbegleiter Olive Octopus Ink
