The idea of starting a website centered around the craft of pipe smoking is something I’ve been considering for quite a while now. Having sat down at my computer a few times with those intentions I would often instead get lost in some other pipe smoking-related content be it a Youtube channel, a message board, or a website. There are so many excellent pipe-smoking content creators out there that the idea of starting my own offering seemed inconsequential and banal.
It then occurred to me that had other pipe smoking enthusiasts not taken the chance and posted their musings to the internet then I wouldn’t have been able to enjoy the countless hours of reading and watching that I have. Additionally, I’ve also wanted to create a place that curated all of the great content I’ve come across. While a few websites are out there that attempt to accomplish that goal, I’ve yet to find one that does it the exact way I would choose to. So, alas, I’ve decided to make a go at it for better or for worse.
I’m attempting to limit The Evening Piper to two goals: 1) write about and share the knowledge I have regarding pipe smoking. 2) Send out a weekly newsletter with a short curated collection of articles and videos highlighting anything I’ve found interesting recently or in the past. I can’t guarantee that everything I write or find will be something groundbreaking that you’ve never come across before, but I am going to commit to being consistent and light hearted.
Thanks again for stopping by The Evening Piper! I hope this is the start of something really fun!
Happy puffs to all!
