Comfortable Shoes Studio

Comfortable Shoes Studio is the name of my little studio in Beverly, Massachusetts; here I paint large watercolors, smaller acrylics, and mostly bind books and journals. I specialize in custom bound journals and sketchbooks with adhesive-free sewing in which the sewing is visible and decorative on the spine. If you're interested please email me!

A few bucks will get you a pack of real Wing sung nibs just in case you get a junk nib. Replacement is easy with a little care. A little work and I've got a pen that writes like new. #cheapfountainpen #ayearofcheappens #penaddict #RSVPstationerypodcast #fountainpen #pen #stationery

It's been a minute since I did a political painting, but here's Karen Pence. She's pretty symbolic of intolerance and hate for the lgbtqia community. I tested out a new brush pen on this plus used my old standby of the pentel pocket brush pen. The wing sung 3009 isn't a bad piston filling brush pen. Not as snappy as I'd like but not bad at all. #stationery #penaddict #RSVPstationerypodcast #cheapfountainpen #yearofcheappens

A truth I keep coming back to again and again. Might be something only people who are "other" and don't pass as the majority really get.

Here's my day. Loads of icy heavy snow means loads of load plows and sanding, which means no recording of podcasts this weekend. Both RSVP and Manuscripting Pod are delayed by a week. It's like a snow day but one that sucks, cause I love my cohosts! #stationery #penaddict #RSVPstationerypodcast

Missing my vision card, but I've got it already. Full insurance coverage is important. Sigh.

I've been consistantly using my BullJour. I use it to form thoughts about the blog, jot down podcast ideas, and plan stuff. It has been interesting to use a larger format than pocket sized. Anyway, it is paired here with a @karaspenco Ink which I love more than expected. And not just because it was a gift and has MEANING over and above it just being a pen. It is a lovely meaty pen with heft. But it still feels good in my tiny lady hands. The nib is lovely. #stationery #penaddict #RSVPstationerypodcast #fountainpen #bulletjournal #bujo

Good thing I have a holiday weekend coming up, so many review drafted in need of edits almost ready to be loaded to the blog. I'm going to need a new page for in process reviews, a great thing to have to do. Lots of ink, lots of cheap pens, some entry level pens too. #penaddict #stationery #RSVPstationerypodcast #fountainpen #cheapfountainpen #pen #comingsoon

Pen mail. You know, sometimes the.mail arrives just when you need a pick me up. And frankly the pen community is the best. I have enough samples of black, blue and blue black to keep the blog is review for months. Also, included is a Conklin durograph with a B stub nib, a Kara's Kustom Ink, and a Pilot Kakuno. This is a pen review starter set. The letter was lovely and filled my heart. #stationeryfolksarethebest #penaddict #RSVPstationerypodcast #fountainpen #ink

I wrote for a 3rd day in a row. Not quite 25 min. Got another review ready for editing. My blog process is: write draft, sot in it, send to google docs, edit for readability and spelling, load to blog and schedule for publishing. Occassionally I dont edit as well as I could. One of my 2019 goals is to get better about that. #amwriting #writerscommunity #writing #manuscriptingpod #assinchair #fingersonkeys #showup #writersofinstagram

  • Here's a shot of my index for @jeanettehouse when I have a break in what I'm writing about I add a comma then the next page for that topic. Take RSVP discussion questions those are on page 39, 40, 43, and 44 so far. My vision statement ponderings are on page 34-35, 45. I have also set this up very different from the typical #bujo #bulletjournal it is basic because my side hustle needs are different than my work needs. In this case I don't use a daily log, simply a future log with a monthly log with space for a general to do list. I use a future log, monthly log, and daily log at my dayjob. #basicbulletjournal
