Editing The Pen Addict 474/transcript (section)

== Forward Writing ==


'''Brad:''' That's why I'm here 474 times, Myke, and you aren't. Yeah, exactly. No one is what I have to say. My friend Johnny Gamber. Pencil revolution guru. Longer running blog than the pen addict. Did you know that, Myke? I think we've talked about that before. I did not know that. So he's run pencil revolution like either a year or two longer than the pen addict.

'''Myke:'''  I mean, seriously, how can there be so much to say about pencils?

'''Brad:''' Well, Johnny can. And Johnny has taken his prolific skills to the zine world. He's been doing the pencil revolution zine and selling them on Etsy for ages and ages. And they're just really good, really smart. And Johnny's just a smart, funny guy. And I love how he writes. And he's always been pen adjacent. He's been a big fan of the big crystal for as long as he's been a fan of pencils. But his real love is pencils. But then he got some vintage fountain pens and he started playing around. And now he is, as they say around here, Myke, he is eat up with fountain pens. And he decided to put out a pen zine. It's called the Pen Post. And he asked me to write the forward for it. And there's a bunch of cool articles in here from friends and people you'll know about inks, about an ode to the big crystal, which I was talking about, forward by me. Just really, really cool publication. And you should go check this out and support Johnny and order the Pen Post. And he's going to be doing more issues in the near future. And it's just great. I love this type of physical publication just put out by someone who's putting all their hard work into this. And I definitely want to support him doing that. So thank you, Johnny, for asking me to be a part of it. And y'all should go check it out.

'''Myke:'''  All right, I think that wraps it up for today, Brad.

'''Brad:''' All right.

'''Myke:'''  We covered so many things today.

'''Brad:''' Lots of things. You know, anytime there's like a gap in us, like just conversing, it seems to be we have a lot of – it's surprising how much new stuff or interesting stuff pops into my brain over the two weeks since we last spoke. And I'm glad we got to cover it.
