This sounds like a fun event… and it’s at one of my favorite NYC stationery stores. Maybe I’ll see you there! How many stories can be written with a box of 400 different words? How many can you create? Join author and host of the Happy Ending Reading Series, Amanda Stern, and MoMA educator and [...]
I found this image at a blog called Robobop that unfortunately no longer seems to be active. It was from a post about Moleskine drawings during a trip to New York City. I hope the blog comes back someday, I’d love to see more!
“Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares” is a new novel by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan, the authors of “Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist.” In the book, two teenagers write messages to each other in a red Moleskine: Dash stumbles across a notebook that Lily leaves on a shelf at the Strand.

The area was just featured on the “Forgotten New York” [...]
Here’s a nice image from Flickr, from someone who’s obviously a notebook addict! There are Moleskines, of course, but I think I also see a HandBook Journal and a Rhodia Webnotebook in there. You can see the artist’s work here. The photo was taken at the 13th annual D.U.M.B.O. Art Under the Bridge Festival® (Sept [...]
