Wendy Brown and her husband, Nick, were both born to teachers in what they fondly refer to as the “pre-digital age.” Their shared love of handwritten correspondence led them to start Brown Ink, a blog where they could rhapsodize on everything from the art of cursive writing to what type of stationery to keep around in a pinch (something for birthdays, something congratulatory, and something with a supportive message).
