Checked out the inaugural San Francisco Stationery Fest this weekend (Day 1).

Different vibe from the pen show—more paper, journaling, stamps, and a broader stationery crowd. Still plenty to enjoy, and I came home with a modest haul.

Just booked the hotel for my first pen show! Going to the London Autumn show in October & I cannot wait. Taking the train down the day before and heading back Sunday afternoon. Hopefully that'll be far less draining & stressful than flying down & back on the same day. Foolishly did that the last time I went to London pre-pandemic. Doing that in a wheelchair was rouuuuuugh.

Now all I need to do is make sure I have money to spend at it 😅
