Editing The Pen Addict 235/transcript (section)

== Stationer ==


'''Myke Dudek:''' Well, with like right now, there's kind of a couple newer ish pieces. Like I have the new one called the stationer, which is I love that piece. You know, it took me a little while to bring it to market, but it's the larger kind of a a five, a six size, you know, notebook stand. And then it's got pens in the front. So it's it's just it's it's a it's a slightly bigger desk piece, you know, but it just serves the purpose perfectly. Like and I actually have one of those on my own desk, you know, as far as just like that that design came about. And I'm like, yep, this is the one I need for my desk. It's going to fit the best. So that one and then the the series that allows you to have a little plant or succulent or cactus. Those have been fun, you know, going back to kind of one of the earlier questions about, you know, fountain pens specifically and like diversification. Like I would say that those pieces, the ones that are the planter ones are kind of my my crossover. They're kind of outside of, you know, a pen, a super pen nerd would would maybe appreciate something like that just as a piece of desk art on their on their own desk, but also a place to store, you know, their decent little pens and stuff.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Exactly.

'''Myke Dudek:''' Exactly. But yeah, those ones are going pretty good. And then obviously some of the standard ones, you know, they they definitely come in and mixes.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. Any big any big any big new plans for 2017? It's probably hard to think about that in the heat of the holiday season. But we put any thought into that yet.

'''Myke Dudek:''' Nothing. Nothing yet, man.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Too busy. Too busy. Yeah. Yep. But what about the blog? Awesome.

'''Myke Dudek:''' With the clicky post, like it's, you know, for one, keeping up on it with all the things going on. I would say that very busy. Yeah. The the I would say from a from a priority standpoint, not not that the clicky post doesn't get my attention, but it's definitely as more responsibilities have come in. And it's become kind of maybe a release valve a little bit. You know, it's one of those places that like I try to post pretty consistently. The last couple of weeks, you have to bear with me with the 16 hour days, you know, out in the shop.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Oh, my gosh.

'''Myke Dudek:''' It's like it's I try to post, you know, about every 10 days or so on average, which is which is a pretty good rhythm for me. I can I can fit that into my life and I enjoy doing it still. I enjoy the photography side of it. But yeah, so with the clicky post, just I want to I want to try and pursue some kind of different types of posts than I've really done before. You know, like ink, ink reviews and, you know, maybe featuring other kind of small business products and stuff that just sort of fit within kind of that realm of it's not exactly pens, but it's like pen related things. You know, so finding, you know, makers or craftspeople or small businesses that I can I can help showcase a little bit more. So, yeah, that's that's pretty much nothing. Nothing probably groundbreaking, I would say, but just keeping up on it. And thanks for all the people that come and read and visit.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. And I know the small business stuff is a passion of yours. And I appreciate your support over all these years and your shoulder to cry on when when I need it. When I'm going, oh, my God, I can't do it. Yeah. Yeah. So you're awesome. So why don't you tell all of our listeners where they can find your awesomeness online?

'''Myke Dudek:''' Well, thanks, man. Yeah. And thanks for thanks for having me. Definitely.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' So absolutely. It's been too long. Like we're an hour and a half into this and we got it. I could probably pull another hour and a half out of my pocket like real quick.

'''Myke Dudek:''' Yeah. Yeah. For the sake of for the sake of Myke's sanity, I'm sure. Yes. Cut it short.
