Meet the Cadillac of pencils.

A well-known company that rates just about everything just announced a pencil as being the “Cadillac” of pencils. Who knew?

I’ve used Blackwing pencils for many years. Over time, the manufacturer has evolved, and vintage pencils now fetch high prices on eBay. I treasure my collection of around 25 vintage pencils, as well as a few newer ones. Many famous writers, such as Stephen King, use these pencils, so I feel like I’m in great company. Even though I can’t afford the car, these pencils truly bring me happiness.

I’m a dreamer at heart, proudly born and raised in San Francisco—a city that covers just 49 square miles but was heaven on earth for me. Every corner of The City (as we natives affectionately call it) has been a part of my life. No area ever felt too distant. With wide eyes and an open heart, I’ve always welcomed the world around me. I find joy in creativity, wonder, and discovering new possibilities—whether that’s through international work adventures or dreaming up the next exciting idea. Even though San Francisco was my hometown, my passport has taken me to many amazing places and introduced me to wonderful people, shaping me in countless ways. I carry pieces of these experiences and friendships with me wherever I go. Above all, I treasure my family, friends, and those small, meaningful moments that keep my spirit alive and thriving. I never want my curiosity to fade away.
