This week’s addict sent me a link to his blog post “Serious Notebook Addict,” where he displays these and other photos: Yep, Nathan’s got a problem! Here’s what’s in his current collection: 3 Large Moleskine Cahiers (although these are being sold in a couple of days) 7 Composition Notebooks 3 Medium Moleskine Black Cahiers 1 [...]
Don’t you love the cover of this book? How could that not make a notebook fan want to read it! It certainly sucked me in, and the publisher was kind enough to send me a review copy. (Which actually has a slightly different cover, with a much cooler old-school fountain pen instead of the purple [...]
I’d noticed Michael Roger’s Decomposition books in several stationery stores– they’re a clever twist on the traditional composition book, but made with recycled paper. I hadn’t realized at first that the company also makes some other very cute notebooks in the 3.5 x 5.5″ size that always sets my heart a-flutter. When I spotted their [...]
This week’s addict is Mr. Dan Kelly, a writer who blogs at Gentleman Unafraid and offers us this pile of journals– every one he’s kept since 1986, with consistent daily entries since 1995. That’s some discipline!
Remember this Notebook Addict post about Carmen, who sent me a fabulous selection of European notebooks? I named her Notebook Addict of the Year back in April, a noble distinction that must now be reaffirmed based on this photo of her collection: Here’s what Carmen has to say about that gorgeous tower: Here is my [...]
An interesting post appreciating Moleskines: The Moleskine. Mol-a-skeen’-a. Yet another cult classic, and why shouldn’t it be? This little black notebook’s got its fans cutting hearts out and launching virgins off the summit of Krakatoa, all for its furtive anonymity, acid-free paper, and unembellished distinction. Okay, hyperbolic, yes–but still, you don’t see enthusiastic blogs, reviews [...]
Joseph sent me a link to this post about his notebook addiction: On February 12, 2005, I ate a bowl of Special K Vanilla Almond with whole milk for breakfast. On January 16, 2006, my sister and my brother-in-law told me that they were going to have Audrey. On March 19, 2007, I took Brian [...]
This week’s addict chooses Blueline notebooks as her drug– what a great stack! I love the labeled spines. You MUST read the rest of the post at Blueline Notebooks: a Love Story — Journaling Saves– lots of great comments about her journaling habits and why she uses Blueline in particular.
This week’s addict is a librarian who was contemplating a book reorganization project and then decided to tackle her journals instead: Her take on the collection: I’ve been keeping a journal since I was 11 years old, and I’ve never really given much thought to what they’re for exactly. They take up quite a bit [...]
This week’s Addict emailed me this photo of her stash– I love the variety, from simple spiral notebooks and composition books to large journals and looseleaf binders. (It’s interesting how some notebook addicts have a lot of repetition of the same notebooks, and others use many different kinds…) Here’s what Missy had to say: I [...]
