This week’s addict blogs at Wavy Lines and shares this photo of a stack of journals: I’ve kept diaries or journals ever since I learned to print words. Locked diaries were a favorite until my pre-teen years when I switched to the more mature journals. I have several fancy leather and hardcover journals (see pictures)Â that … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Laura Marcella
Waterfall blogs at “A Sort of Notebook.” You know a blogger likes notebooks when she names her blog after them… and she obviously knows that a mere online journal can’t compare to paper ones. Here’s a photo of all her journals kept since 1980, when she was 10: This is the largest and most consistent … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Waterfall
This week’s addict says: I am a notebook junkie. I love notebooks and sketchbooks. This is a small selection of what I own — it doesn’t include work notebooks, notebooks in other places in the house, or notebooks on the other shelf. Or really old notebooks. Well, I think she should take some pictures of … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Digital Garden Gnome
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 … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Missy
Here’s a question that I’ve been contemplating for a while: do you think men are more likely to love notebooks than women? Perhaps I should phrase that differently: are men more likely be notebook addicts than women are likely to be notebook addicts? Some time ago, I had to correct a blogger who had referred … Continue reading Who’s More Addicted to Notebooks: Men or Women?
It’s long overdue that I call attention to this week’s addict, who blogs at Rants of the Archer. Here’s part of her notebook collection: There are 57 notebooks in that photo. But wait, there’s more! Another 55 notebooks are shown below: She mentions that some of the notebooks are being used, but I also spy … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: The Archer
Andrea sent me these great photos of her notebook collection, with the notes below. Pen and ink lovers, there’s an extra bonus for you! I am student of classical archaeology (hardly working on the dissertation thesis) and few months ago I found your website. I was so glad that I am not the only one, … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Andrea
Flickr is such a great source of notebook addicts! Here’s the latest one, and I’d say he/she REALLY has a problem! All of these are as yet unused: I’m pretty sure I see Moleskines, maybe Rhodia and Clairefontaine, and I’m not sure what else. There’s a lot of variety there! The owner seems to be … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Freen707
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 … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: D. M. Cornish
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 … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Travisthetrout
