The Munchkin Wrangler says he’s “hooked on paper!” This week’s Addict of the Week counted up his stash and did some math to prove the following: I have enough paper stashed in the house to write 2.3 million words. Considering my current production rate of one 100,000-word novel per year, and maybe another 20,000 words … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: The Munchkin Wrangler

According to the Piccadilly website, they’ll have them in April! The question, though, is whether any retailers will have them. Black Cover’s review mentioned that a gridded version was … Continue reading Piccadilly Squared Notebooks Coming in April
