Inspired by last week’s color-coordination of my pens, I decided to pro-actively set-up supplies for my journal for February. I am embracing the Valentine’s Day vibe with an all-red-and-pink palette with pink floral washi and flower stickers as well as color matching my pens and inks. I picked out two inks for the month: Monteverde…

Writing as Part of Slow Living Movement
(This post, while started before last week’s AI post, seems like an appropriate follow-up.) As the standstill of the COVID lockdown becomes a distant memory, our society has become more and more hurried again. How many times have you replied to the question, “How are you doing?” with the reply “Busy!” or heard someone else…
GIVEAWAY: Mark’s EDiT Reading Notebook

At the beginning of the year, I posted about my planner set-up for the year which included the Midori B6 Pocket Planner in the Clover design ($23.50, out of stock but a Birds edition is still available) tucked into my leather B6 cover from Bassy & Co ($81 and up) with my Stalogy Editor’s Series 365…
Journal Supplies: Rub-On Stickers
Over the last few months, I’ve been collecting some of the rub-on/rub-down/transfer stickers. I grew up using rub-on transfer letters known sold by Letraset and other companies so the revival of rub-on graphics is a bit nostaligc for me. I have two brands to show: MU Series Print-On Stickers ($3.35 per set of two sheets)…
