Who is Rachel?
I am the curator of the Pen of the Month Club. After months of talking about pens with my friends and coworkers, discussing various pens' merits, and having a public love affair with a set of Sharpie pens (we've since broken up, but we're still friends), I got the idea for a pen club. Turns out my friends are really cool and thought it was a good idea! I thank them for their enthusiasm, survey data, and encouragement, without which I would not have taken on this new hobby/adventure.
What's the Pen of the Month Club all about?
You like pens. Maybe one day you'll even find the perfect pen. But there are still so many left to try! You like having a lot of pens to choose from, but you wish you didn't have to buy a 5-pack just to try one out. You wish you were a member of a pen of the month club or something so you could try new pens and discuss their merits with other pen enthusiasts.
You do? That's perfect! I run a Pen of the Month Club! I send you pens to gather your opinions and to bond over a mutual interest. Doesn't that sound like so much fun???
How can I join?
We are not currently accepting new members, but existing members can sign up for an account and pay membership dues.
What's in it for members?
Pens! A chance to give your opinions! A sense of belonging to a fun community of people who also appreciate the small things in life, like a really good pen.
What's in it for Rachel?
Pens! A chance to hone my data management and visualization, communication, and leadership skillz. A sense of belonging to a fun community of people who also appreciate the small things in life, like a really good pen.
What if I don't want to join, I just want to see what other people think about pens?
