About Scribomechanica
A pseudo-Latin word meaning "of or relating to tools used for writing," Scribomechanica is a place for writing instrument reviews and thoughts of all kinds. Here you will find information on pencils, pens, typewriters, and other modes of writing, a repository of knowledge I've gained from years of interest and trawling through books and websites.
I found the word "scribomechanica" on Urban Dictionary, but only recently found out that it was penned by Andy Welfle of Woodclinched. Do check out his blog and the others listed in the Scribosphere page, they're all awesome.
I started this website in July 2014, with the intention of creating a central spot for product reviews and thoughts about writing instruments. My previous project, coolstuff4819.blogspot.com, was a personal blog where I wrote about all sorts of things, writing instruments included. The problem lay in the inherent disorganization of the blog format; seeing the latest posts was simple, but finding earlier ones was a difficulty. I indexed all the posts manually, but figured there could be an easier way. Given that the majority of my time was spent writing about writing instruments, my primary hobby, I decided to dedicate a website to just that. Here is the result!
