Newbie Pen Recs, Journaler Nibs, + Spotlighting a New Dominant Industry Pen | Goulet Q&A Ep. 360

In this episode, Brian returns to Q&A and talks Journaler nibs and where to find them, recommends the best fountain pen brands for beginners, answers a question about BENU stock, helps navigate the Goulet Pens website, spotlights the Dominant Industry Keyno Serenity pen and ink, and shares what he’s been up to over the last couple of weeks. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Intro 00:45 Feedback 05:43 New Stuff 12:18 Company Updates 15:15 1) What lesser-known fountain pen brands would you recommend to new enthusiasts? I just finished drafting a novella with my Visconti Mythos Poseidon from Goulet Pens, and its medium nib was excellent. 23:15 2) If specialty nibs like the Journaler supposedly aren’t that popular, why are they sold out everywhere? As a newer fountain pen user, I’m fascinated by how nibs can make handwriting look more elegant, and I love my Journaler nib—just not the pen color I had to buy to get it. 39:22 3) Do you know if Goulet Pens will carry the BENU Darwin? I’m looking to buy it in the U.S., but I haven’t been able to find it. 46:09 4) Why are product review comments no longer visible on the Goulet Pens website? I can see the ratings, but not the written reviews. 51:20 Pen Spotlight: Dominant Industry Keyno No.001 Serenity 01:02:52 Brian’s Adventures 01:12:21 Fun Fact LINKS TO PRODUCTS FEATURED: New Stuff: TWSBI ECO Horse Year (SE): https://www.gouletpens.com/products/t...
