is Parkerpens.net still updated?

As per the title, the website, which is of course the bible for all things Parker, doesn't seem to have been updated for a while (c.2019).

 

Is it known if future content will be added to or is essentially legacy at this point? I think the website owner is Tony Fischier.

I did, but the form on the website is quite dated and it wasn't clear anything was being sent

It seems the site has not been updated for a few years...

About two years ago I tried to email Tony with some additional information but never heard from him back. 

 

All the best is only beginning now...

thanks thats useful to know, shame as the resource has been built up since 1995 and deserves a dedicated custodian.

Agreed, it’s a real asset to the community.

It's my go-to site for all things "Parker pen".  

Of course I once contacted Tony Fischier with a question about my (back then) 2 Parker 51s.  And after answering them, he said "And you'll start looking at Vacumatics next...."  And I said, "Nope!  Too Art Deco for my taste...."  

Little did I know.... :headsmack:  I now have almost as many Vacs as 51s (not counting 51 Vacs of course).

He's probably STILL laughing himself sick.... :blush:

Hello everybody. Yes, I still intend to update the site. What happened was that I unexpectedly had a breakthrough as a crime novel writer, so I've been kind of busy wanting to build my reader audience. But I have been collecting info, so updates are coming!

Thanks for your interest!

Very cool!  Do pens figure in the plot(s) and do you do your first drafts on paper with a Parker pen?  Enquiring minds want to know!

Best news I’ve heard all day, thanks Tony.

 

For example, the Parker Premier Mk III is nowhere to be seen.

Great news indeed. Parkerpens.net is a resource I use probably every couple of days.
