Once more is is the first Friday on November and that means International Fountain Pen Day.

Now for the last few years I have listed the offers I have found in the UK, growing the list over the day, however I suspect those will already be know to most of you who regularly read this blog, plus it means the reader will have to return multiple times times during the day under the hopes there is something both new and of use to them.

Key thing is to enjoy and possibly use the day as an excuse to buy something, though how many of the deals are better than Black Friday at the end of the month, or the X-Mas sales. More importantly it gives you an excuse to get out all those pens that have been left unloved for a year, ink them up, and have some fun.

Just remember a fountain pen is not just for Fountain Pen Day, but till you need to raise funds for the next big purcha… errrr.

Oh and any makers and vendors who fancy lending some of their wares for review 😉

I gave up on resisting, so here you go, UK and Irish vendors only:
Cult Pens – 10% off selected pens with the code FPD23
Special offers on at The Writing Desk
10% discount at Pure Pens (and I assume Pelikan Pens ?)
20% discount off at Stonecott Fine Writing Supplies with the code FPDay
Dens Pens have a 15% off code with fpd23
Art from the Heart have some special deals on their website
Ritter’s Writers has 15% off with the code Nov15
Gilbert House has 15% off until the end of Sunday (FPDay23 code ?).
Gravitas Pens has a 25% discount with the code FOUNTAINPENDAY
5% discount at Write Here with the code FPD

The list will grow, the initial 7 were gathered before the start of the day.
