Another oldie but goodie in celebration of 10 years of Notebook Stories. I originally wrote the post below in October 2008 and GeorgieR’s notebook is still one of my favorite “Other People’s Notebooks” posts. I love the density of the pages and the wear on the Filofax binder. Seeing notebooks like this always makes me … Continue reading Revisiting the Past: GeorgieR’s Filofax (2008)
This week’s addict has a detailed plan for how she’ll be using at least 7 planners and journals for various purposes– one for work projects, one for fitness and meal planning, others for daily journaling, art journaling, travel journaling and miscellaneous notes.

Here’s an addict I found via Pinterest: Susannah Conway, an author, photographer and teacher. I love how her Filofax collection is so varied colorful, and her Moleskines are so monochrome and orderly! These are my journals dated 2003 – 2011. All large ruled Moleskines.

For my day job, I attend the Book Expo convention every year. A fringe benefit of the show is that I usually manage to spot some notebook vendors and get a look at their new products, but at this year’s show, which occurred last weekend, it was really sparse! Leuchtturm had a colorful corner booth, … Continue reading BookExpo 2014
The blogger at Filofancy notes that the Flex series by Filofax doesn’t get much blogging coverage. I can’t say I’ve found them inspiring at all when I see them in stores– wrong sizes, blah materials… it just makes me sad to see them in comparison to the wonderful things Filofax was making 15 or 20 … Continue reading Filofancy’s Flex
