Andy Welfle

San Francisco

Andy started blogging about pencils in 2007, after he bought a sampler pack and, for some reason, reviewed every pencil in it on his personal blog. That turned into a gig reviewing products for the now-defunct PencilThings.info, then his own pencil blog, Woodclinched, then a short stint running the social media community at Pencils.com. In 2014, he started talking about pencils into a microphone with Johnny and Tim, and he hasn't stopped.

By day, he's a content designer. He co-wrote Writing Is Designing, a book about UX writing, with Michael Metts. The rest of the time, he's making zines, putting stickers on things, and rewatching Star Trek.
