This week’s addict is a writer who does much of his work in notebooks. He recently finished a novel consisting of “116,386 words, 472 pages (almost a ream of paper), and numerous books of hand written script.”

 

“I always write the first draft by hand, I find it more intimate than typing directly onto my laptop, my ideas seem to flow better, besides I love notebooks and pens. I can’t stop myself from going into every stationary shop I see and buying notebooks. The little book on top of the file is crammed with thoughts and ideas, also hand written research notes. Each one of my novels has one of these little books dedicated to it.”
