Vote - Week 11

[clauderainsrm]

A few words from clauderainsrm:

Since 2014, there is an annual event called the “Pelikan Pen Hub”, which is a worldwide one-day celebration of fountain pens. Each area (that met the qualifications) has a “hub” where people gather to use their pens and hang out. It is sponsored by Pelikan pens, which is a German company that has been in the business since 1838, making pens and ink!

The annual hub took place last Friday, which for Florida (and much of the southeast coast of the United States) was when Hurricane Helene showed up with its path of destruction. Most of the area where the Hub was to take place had streets completely underwater. Pelikan had sent out an email to all of the Hub Masters in the Southeast US letting them know they were free to reschedule the event (the first time it’s happened, so it’s unprecedented).

That reschedule date - for my area - was last night. Which is why everyone ended up having an extra day to write and edit their entries. So you can thank my wife’s love of analog writing for your extra time!

From what I’ve seen as I was linking the entries (a brief scan, my full read will come this weekend), it seems like you used that time well!

How well though is going to be determined by the voters. So make sure you read, comment and vote for your favorites!

We will be losing TWO contestants again.

The poll will be closing Tuesday, October 8th at 8pm ET. Good luck to everyone!
