Jacques Herbin Bleu Plénitude

Who knew scented candles would make such an impact on this show? Could their mere existence be more important than the possibility of our beloved Sailor Pen Co. changing ownership? It is a very on-brand Pen Addict Podcast episode this week. Join us!

The Pen Addict Podcast, Episode 416: The Purest Carrots

Round Two for the One-Step.

I won’t lie, it took me a minute to realize what this most perfect of show titles was in reference to. Myke and I shared a ton of listener feedback on writing your local representatives, and cleared up our understanding of how rose gold nibs are made. I also shared my thoughts on two new Kickstarter campaigns that I was fortunate enough to get an early look at.

Focused, Episode 102: Analog Productivity with Brad Dowdy

Productivity and me don’t necessarily go hand in hand. Yes, I get it all done somehow, but in my own "can’t get there from here" kind of way.

David Sparks and Mike Schmitz had me on their podcast, Focused, to discuss how I work, and the analog tools I use for the work. Along the way, we discovered that I have more of a plan than I thought. I also learned the random notebook I keep is a Commonplace Book.

I came away from our conversation with a better understanding of my own personal productivity, and you may even glean something from our conversation.

Bonus: I spent some of Mike’s money show.
