A Moleskine Fangirl Introduces Stationery Club

If you live in London, you might want to join the  Stationery Club.  Here’s what a self-described Moleskine Fangirl has to say about a meeting she attended, and her own notebook preferences: “Is it a real club?” Yes.  A real-life, lots of people in a bar, scaring the non-stationery normals out of the room type … Continue reading A Moleskine Fangirl Introduces Stationery Club

“Notebooks, Notebooks Everywhere!”

Here’s another simultaneous multi-notebook user, though I didn’t think she was quite at the level of being an addict.
