It’s always cool to see someone turn their love of notebooks into a business:

“Nicole Watkins knows firsthand that faithfully writing in a journal can change your life.

“I’ve been journaling since I was a little girl. I loved that connection between the hand and the mind and writing would always get me through sad times and happy times,” Watkins said.

She called herself a journal junky, buying up paper to record her life. Until she had the idea to save some money by making her own journals. Then Watkins took a brave step further. Why not make journals for others to write in?

Now she’s built a thriving online business, Journal Junky, operating out of her West Asheville home, and making her first ventures into nontraditional book publishing.”
