Then when I was pregnant with my first child I … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Brenda Susan
This week’s addict posts this photo of some colorful notebooks: She says: This is my current stack of new notebooks, as my in-use notebooks are all too grimy and worn-looking to make a decent photo. Of course I think grimy, worn-looking notebooks make great photos and wish she’d shared them! Read more at A Paperback … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: A Paperback Writer

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!
This week’s addict displays this nice neat pile of some of his “secret obsession”– notebooks: Ever since I started drawing, I have been fascinated by books of blank white pages, i.e. Sketchbooks. A book devoid of all content, just waiting to be filled with anything. Throughout highschool I carried a sketchbook with me at all … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Jason

g_m_a_x has some drool-worthy Filofax photos on his Flickr photostream, including this one, which is by no means his full collection: Looking at the photos almost gives me the shivers– the Filofaxes have obviously been collected over the years, from back when they were made with much higher-end materials. So many gorgeous leathers, so deliciously … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: g_m_a_x

This week’s notebook addict is actually a sketchbook addict, who comments: So, for someone who doesn’t have a ton of time for drawing for fun these days, I have an obsession with sketchbooks.
