Pencil Philosophy

2008 Greetings.

Pencil Revolution - Tue, 01/29/2008 - 11:32 By Pencil Revolution

Greetings from the Offices of Pencil Revolution, after a year and a half’s time. Apologies that comments have not been moderated since the summer of 2006. There are still several thousand of combined spam and comments to be trudged through, one of these days. There was a lot of dust when we checked in — and many comments that lead us to suspect that there are some things that need to be clarified.

Notebookism.

Pencil Revolution - Thu, 07/27/2006 - 18:05 By Pencil Revolution

From the same fountain of awesomeness that brought you Moleskinerie, we are happy to spread the word about Notebookism.
We all share a pleasant affliction - the urge to create on paper.
The smell of smooth creamy paper sends our hearts aflutter. The delicate tinkling of nib against inkwell accelerates our pulse rate. We stare endlessly at the first blank page.
Welcome to Notebookism. This is the place to indulge yourself with kindred spirits.

Success.

One of the implicit goals of Pencil Revolution was to change the way that people think about pencils and to win the humble pencil back its place with gel pens, fountain pens and computers. This goal became explicit over time, and was coupled with the project of creating enough buzz that pencil manufacturers would take notice and [re]introduce quality pencils like the old days.

At Navy Pier in Chicago, there is a bronze statue of Oak Park native Bob Newhart.  What is special is that he is holding a pencil:)

Jeremy from Loud Style has caught the pencil blog even more than the last time we checked in.
My little collection has grown quite a bit in the past six months. Since my last blog post about pencils is the most visited page on this site (after the homepage of course), I decided to write about them again.
