Fountain Pen Day Prizes - read on....

It's been a slow start to my rhyming competition so I thought I'd remind you again about the prizes you can receive if you win on November 7:

It starts with one of these Jinhao 599 Lamy copies. The winner gets choice of colour and so-on down the line. These are a remarkably good workhorse pen and the colours just jump out at you!

 Next, there is one of these latest Field Notes notebooks for the first and second prizes:

For the second prize winner there is this nifty Pilot notepad - no, it will not exterminate (non-Dr Who fans, will not understand this Dalek)

 For the First prize winner, there will be a limited edition Pressy and t-shirt. Pressy is a powerful little button for Android phones that just sticks in your headphone jack and performs little wonders.

and finally there will be a mix of official Fountain Pen Day paraphernalia

Now all you need to do is send a rhyme in to this blog, or my Instagram site (eclectidbits), that is about anything fountain pen related. Simple. I will choose the winner, so my pick will be subjective not random.

I look forward to seeing your efforts (and a big thankyou to the Fountain Pen Day guru for both inventing the day, and providing some of our loot!)

Fountain Pen Day Competition - lots of prizes!

Inktober begins and the month ahead

Will see preparations begin.

For the time of the penfolk, it has been said

Is November 7 herein.

To win a prize, and there's quite a few,

You must rhyme; and the subject must be:

pen or ink, or nib - you choose;

and the winners are picked by me!

You have up to, and including, November 7, International  Fountain Pen Day , to send me your most creative rhymes and you are in the running to win:

One of these Jinhao 599 (Lamy Safari copies) - best rhyme gets first choice of colour etc down the line. [PS there is only one Orange].

One of these new Field Notes (goes to first and second prize only):

This little nifty Pilot pad (2nd prize only):

No, you don't get the Dalek!

A mix of these official Fountain Pen Day goodies (Bookmarks limited to first 4):

AND...

The famous Pressy! Pressy is an Android phone gadget I purchased from Kickstarter but I'm an Apple man so it goes to the grand prize winner. This is in special Kickstarter green, and comes with a medium size Pressy tshirt.

Aint it cute!

So get your rhyming head in place;

There's a bevy of fun to be had.

Even send a pic of your masterpiece

Just try not to joke like a dad!
