What a fun site! Yes, some of us share your obsession without the foggiest idea why. It’s just always been this way. Keep up the good work!

Count me among the inexplicably obsessed. While I do use fountain pens almost exclusively, I journal only sporadically and sketch infrequently, yet the shelves above my desk are full of notebooks and quality paper gathered in my physical and cyber travels. I guess they’re there for when inspiration finally strikes! I look forward to seeing more of your site. Thanks!

Like your site. I always look at the all the journals and notebooks in the stores, but never buy them. I think I’m afraid all those blank pages might reveal how little I have to say:) !!!! So I’ll just have to look from the sidelines.

Liked the presentation of paper things which enabled me to end my search and r & d sooner.
Things Paper and writing instruments I have found along the way: Mead 4″ x 6″ notepads are nice to have for the shirt pocket because the back & front are made of plastic and doesn’t wear out etc. On the http://www.mec.ca web site they have 2 sizes of notepads that can handle wet weather and still be written on. Didn’t buy them yet but may as soon as I overcome my pratical side of me that says who’s going to write in the rain! Try searching for notepad at http://www.mec.ca 10 color pens (in the same barrel) good for highlighting to do lists and writing color coded memos! –at dollar stores. 2 companies that make pens that write on walls, ceilings, underwater on wet and greasy surfaces are 1) Fisher Space pen and 2) the Powertank Pen made by Uni-Ball is cheaper too. The YOROPEN read–YORO PEN. This pen won 5 awards among them the Geneva design award invented by a father with 2 girls with disabilities in Japan. The peculiar L shaped end makes writing easier for all and especially left handed writers for more info do a Google search for “YOROPEN” no spaces. The classic 4 color Bic pen a classic which has replaced all the fancy pens I had for some color coded writings and notes i make at work–black, green, red and blue in the same barrel.
all for now
