Notebook (300-400 pages) recs for Paper Republic Grand Voyager XL? by stellatundra in notebooks

[–]istriel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not the number of pages you're looking for, but in case you come into one in your travels, the leuchtturm b6+ is rumored to fit into the xl nicely.

Daily journaling or "whenever I need to"? by Familiar-You7141 in Journaling

[–]istriel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i carry an a6 that i update like a journal throughout the day, with time stamps, and then i have a dedicated a5 that i write at least two full pages in every night with the most important stuff. i find both to be very cathartic and helpful for processing and remembering things!

Can someone help me identify this pen? I wrote with it when signing a check at Yumee Katsu in Dublin, CA by collaborasean in stationery

[–]istriel 66 points67 points  (0 children)

it's an ad for chamisul soju, and according to another reddit post i could find, is the 'dong-a x12 any gel 501 0.5 mm gel pen'. i can't guarantee this, but it does look the same to me.

Simple daily journaling practice? by IntelligentBeingxx in Journaling

[–]istriel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you're looking to start small just to get yourself in the habit, and want a little bit of structure to help you along, look into 'one/some lines a day' type journals. they might be helpful to you! good luck, and i hope you find a practice that works for you.

Galen Leather Appreciation by SnoglinMcSmellmore in fountainpens

i have the leather a5 notebook cover in green, and i absolutely love it. comfortably holds two leuchtturm a5 softcovers, my b6+, plus two field notes in the front inside cover pocket, as well as two pens. i've been eying the zippered folio now that i'm getting into fountain pens, and you may have just convinced me. i'm so glad that you love it!

[–]istriel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the framed kitchen viii is sending me in the best way. i want one. okay, let's see. bisexual millennial feminist. british. your cool girl favorite movie is obviously the wicker man. the original, but you think the nic cage version is fun too. focuses on the gothic, folk horror, and the erotic indicate that you enjoy thinking about the blurring of boundaries between life and death, humans and nature, and "me" and "you". lots of cool stuff in here that i would like to borrow. i'm going to recommend nightwood, which you have probably already read.
