This quick-start guide of about 1,000 words covers Building a Pen Collection in a short, practical form. It begins with what to know before you start and a list of what you'll need. Its 9 numbered steps are: take stock of what you have; choose a focus; set a budget; know the rough price bands; write a wish list; record every pen; photograph each pen; store pens well; know how to sell one honestly. It ends with fixes for when something goes wrong, what to try once you have the basics, and where to go from here. It opens in any web browser on a phone, tablet or computer.
