[  Pen Writings Index  ]

I was born and raised in Nashua. I’m a sophomore at Keene State College, a school that I surely enjoy. I’ve known the Binders since before I was a teenager and worked for them since late 2005, and have been dragged deeper into the world of fountain pens. Fountain pens are very interesting, and I tend to show my friends the two fountain pens that I own. Most don’t know what they are, and I gladly pull one out and show them how it works, then I let them try it out. They wonder why a person my age has fountain pens, and I simply tell them that when I was hired to pack and ship them I discovered how cool they really are.

Most of the time I pack and ship pens that are returning to their owners or going to new homes. (I’m basically the shipping department.) However, I often get to do a little more. I am learning how to do several other things, such as logging pens in and out of inventory and assembling orders for shipping. I fill in for Barbara in the “office” when she is out of town. Most importantly, I get to play with the kids. Susanna is my “God-Sister” (my parents’ goddaughter), so of course naturally I play with her. I play with her older brother Patrick, too, as he and I spent a summer reading books on the hammock when he was younger.
