Star for a Day!

Well, maybe more than a day! Last month Justin Kitch, CEO of Homestead.com, wrote an article on his blog about some of the troubles I was complaining about in a letter to him. To his everlasting credit, he called me and let me vent at him for a good half-hour, and for the most part was sympathetic to my problems.

That article has caused my website to be BOMBED with visits!!! And even some sales, pretty respectable really. If this keeps up, I'll be glad my workshop is near-finished, because I'll need the extra room.

My deepest thanks to Justin, and best wishes on Homestead's new merger with Intuit!

We're Number 2!!!

Well, with a lot of help from my cyber-buddy Ron I'm ranked 2nd on Google under heirloom pens! Now, I just need to have the right customers come along and actually buy something. It will happen.

I've been so busy with the apartment renovation I haven't had as much time to turn as I'd like. I have so many pens to finish I'm running out of room to organize them. And the Holidays are fast approaching!

We're about 3 weeks away from the shop being finished. I'll post pictures as soon as it's done.
