This week, we have a Kiwi Notebook Addict, a “petite, geeky journalist-in-training living in New Zealand.” Here’s her stash: I really like those wire-bound ones with the photo collages on the covers.

This week’s Notebook Addict has been intensively documenting his life in daily journals, kept over many years. The photo below shows 5 years’ worth of notebooks, from 1985 to 1990.
