What if a fact about us or our guides is wrong?
Our corrections promiseWrite to us and we correct the guide, and its date, as soon as we have checked the fact. Makers, pen-show organizers and readers have already sent us corrections, and the guides changed. If you run a show or a brand we cover, send us your dates, specs or press page and we will check them against your source. How we check facts is on the About page.
How do makers and pen shows get listed?
Free, and not for saleListings are free and are not for sale. We cover a maker or event when we can source the facts, and we never accept payment for coverage or for the Brand-confirmed seal (what the seal means). To check your listing, start with our pen shows guide or your brand page under Brands A–Z.
