I found this week’s addict via a link at The Cramped, and there’s just so much to love! First, 96 notebooks all in a row! I am always impressed by this level of commitment to a single notebook type/brand. Then there’s the red dots on the spines so you can see at a glance how … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Dave Gauer→
I love it when my wishes come true! I was thrilled when the Nolty Daily Book was announced for 2020 to celebrate their 70th anniversary but then crushed when they decided not to add it to their regular line-up. But thanks to Instagram, I recently spotted a sneaky late addition to their new products: an … Continue reading Undated Nolty Daily Book→
Do you ever feel like there is a sad and lonely notebook and you might be its only savior? If so, you’re not alone in your desire to do a notebook rescue! I recently performed a selfless, heroic act of notebook rescue. I went back to Jerry’s to see if they had any more of … Continue reading Notebook Rescue→

I was always frustrated that I couldn’t figure out how to order one of these notebooks for US delivery, so I was thrilled to see that the brand is … Continue reading Plotter USA Launch→

Or perhaps I should say I’m less excited about trying to figure out what the Nolty 2022 diaries are! I’ve tried to find the page on their website that I used to use to figure … Continue reading Nolty 2022→
I’ve almost always had a sharp disparity between my preferred notebooks for personal use and my preferred work notebooks. My personal notebooks are always pocket sized, with plain, dotted, or grid pages, usually hardcover. But my work notebooks are usually none of those things. I’ve written about some of my work notebooks before. In my … Continue reading My Latest Work Notebooks→
A post by Stuart at Nero’s Notes got me thinking about notebook routines. Not just which notebooks are used, but habits of how and when you use them. Stuart talks about his daily journaling routine: each morning, he gets up early, meditates, then writes in his Hobonichi Techo. I love the idea of this kind … Continue reading Notebook Routines→
Today we’re taking a look at the Pineider Boston notebook. I forget where I was poking around online when I first saw that Pineider made some cute pocket notebooks– I think it was some luxury goods site. Pineider certainly qualifies as a luxury brand: their small leather wallets start at close to $200, and go … Continue reading Pineider Boston Notebook Review→
I’ve written about a few Fabio Ricci notebooks in the past. This Turkish notebook brand makes some of the Blackwing branded notebooks I also reviewed, and I really liked one of their notebooks I bought in Istanbul. Today’s Fabio Ricci notebook was part of my quest to try every Moleskine clone in the universe. It’s … Continue reading Fabio Ricci Notebook Review→
