This week’s addict is the author and illustrator D. M. Cornish, creator of the Monster-Blood Tattoo series. I’d never heard of these books, but they seem to have gotten some great reviews. I often enjoy fantasy novels for kids, so now I’m tempted to check them out! But what I’d really like to see are [...]
Travis the Trout shares this photo of his stash, at least part of it!
The notebook collection here is very different from my eye-candy ones of my childhood when my collection was all about the look, now my notebooks also have a more academic appeal. My intentions are to weed out the practical from the beautiful [...]
This week’s addict is Catherine Sharp, a writer living in Northern Ireland. She got several comments on this article from people confessing that they shared her (our) addiction! I have to say, this may be the first time I’ve posted an addict photo where I couldn’t positively identify a single notebook brand! (I thought one [...]

Our latest addict of the week is a regular reader who submitted this photo of her stash, safely guarded by two interesting little figures:
Looks like a nice collection of Piccadilly and Moleskine notebooks, plus some other brands I don’t recognize, all ready to filled up with creativity, perhaps some early drafts of her blog posts [...]

This week’s Addict is a self-described “traveling folk rocker” who mentions picking up some pebbles along the way. She also picked up some notebooks!
These were found while helping her mother prepare for a move:
The most time-consuming part of packing was organizing all of my notebooks, CDs, and cassettes from over the years – the volume [...]
This week’s notebook addict has the distinction of being our first Filofax addict:
This is a particularly hard to justify form of notebook addiction– after all, a Filofax is a durable, refillable binder: you can’t “use it up” the way you can with other bound notebooks and journals. 10 Moleskine-type notebooks might not seem like qualification [...]

Msmonster presents a portion of her large and very eclectic notebook collection:
She notes “I’m not majorly picky about where I get my notebooks from, I love my Ciak and Rhodia as much as I love some of my Tesco brand notebooks that cost as little as £1.50.”

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 25 [...]

I’ve noticed a couple of great posts about notebooks by Range over at Memoirs on a Rainy Day. I love it when people can just talk about their notebooks and why they like them and how they use them, as in this post: Notebook Obsession and Rhodia Love. He doesn’t have a photo of his [...]

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 [...]
