From the 1.28.2020 email distributed to the "Colorado Pen Posse" Happy 2020 everyone! I hope your new year is off to a great start. Its time for the first Pen Posse meeting of the year! When: February 15th, 2020 11AM-1PM Where: Pints Pub (221 W 13th Ave, Denver, CO 80204) As usual, bring your new (or new to us) pens, inks, pen friends & stories with you to share. We’ll also have an update on the 7thannual Colorado Pen Show.

Hello everyone, I recently joined the fountain pen cult community, and have been coming to FPN for information. So, I thought I'd join in, and start interacting! A little bit about me: I have always been into pens and pen colors, looking for the smoothest experience. I have owned every color G2, Sakura, etc. you can think of. Although everything in my work life is digital, I'm still a sucker for the analog style of taking pen to paper. I thought it was time to mature my writing utensils. My journey started with multiple pens from Lamy (Safaris, Al-Stars, and Vistas), a Pilot Metropolitan, and a Noodler's Ahab, as I search for my preferred nib size/feel and ink colors. To me, everything about fountain pens is deliberate and I am thoroughly in love. This is an amazing corner of the inter-webs, with a wealth of information and personality. I can't wait to get more involved. Cheers,FeriociousNPrettyaka Newsha

I haven't seen any post about it yet, but the Colorado Pen Show is coming up in a few weeks: October 6-8, 2017, in Denver at the Double Tree Stapleton North. http://www.coloradopenshow.com

Hello! If you see this in a couple of threads I am simply trying to get the interest out there and see if we can revive (if dead) a Colorado Pen meet-up group! I've recently moved back into fountain pens (and more writing in general; notes in meetings/conferences/etc.) and would love to meet face-to-face with other like-minded folks to talk paper types and sources, inks, pens, and the rest! I live in downtown Denver and am happy to travel along the front range for a good meet-up! Is the Colorado group still active? If not, we should revive it! I own a lot of fancy camera gear too (including macro lens)! Regards, Mike
