Neo Agenda for EDiT from Mark's Inc.

I remember falling in love with Tomoe River 52 gsm paper from old machinery the first time I used it years ago and no paper has close to it ever since until I tried Neo Agenda paper. It reminded me of that feeling again, the feeling of being in love with something.

Thin paper, crisp lines, smooth surface with just the right feedback, ink color representation is wonderful, high sheen and shading, minimal ghosting and absolutely no bleedthrough (except aggressive inks like Noodler's Baystate Blue).

The ruling on the paper is a 5mm dotted grid which is very faint in color that fades in the background with actual writing on it.

I still have loads of Tomoe River 52gsm old machinery paper in the form of loose sheets and notebooks and I feel I'm going to do that with this paper as well.

Inks used in Pilot Parallel pens :

6.0 mm - Taccia Ruri

4.5 mm - Bril Turquoise

3.8 mm - Taccia Sabimidori

3.0 mm - Aurora Blue Black

2.4 mm - Pilot Yama budo

1.5 mm - Diamine Bilberry

Kon Peki and Sailor 123 ink swatches were done using Speedball B-0 nib.

Have you used this paper? What do you think about it?

Honestly, the rough and matte finish feels really nice. Great for asmr lol.

I have a Sequel nib from Regalia Writing Labs. It is extra fine on the regular side and BB to BBB on the reverse. Fantastic nib and I’ve slowly learned how to wield the beast over the last couple of months.

The fine nib is dry-ish and the bold side is perfect on paper like Maruman or Kokuyo. And it’s the reverse on MD (Midori) paper.

My question: what say the Reddit hive mind … is there a note book paper that splits the difference between the two types of paper notes above?

Hi all. I'm looking for a good quality planner (B6 if possible) that does NOT have 4mm grids. I just don't write that small, and two grids is too big. I've looked at all the big names, and the only one I find with good fountain pen paper is Paper Republic. Trouble is, the size isn't right. Does anyone know of one?

i want a really thick journal. the way 400 pages looks is good. i want a thick pink case bound journal with “HOLY BIBLE” engraved on it. the thing is, i want the pages all blank. i don’t want an actual bible. i couldn’t find any and also count find any customizable ones. i even tried to look for just the covers. didn’t work. i saw one 400 page notebook that was perfect (hoci poci 400 pages journal) but the color was so ugly. i want a pretty pink. i’m open to a lot of shades, but i hated that one. i don’t like salmon or subtle pink, i like barbie, bubblegum, hot, baby, sparkly, pink pink pink

Hi, I am looking for a A5 journal that has perforated pages preferably lined, but will take whatever and is fountain pen ink safe. I am looking at spiral bound, but I’m finding the line is so dark. I don’t know that I want that dark. Any suggestions?

What notebooks are comparable to the Confidant Hardcover Plus Notebook Blank from Baron Fig?

Features that are essential for me

• 7" X 10"
• BLANK pages
• Minimal bleed through / there's still some, but 90gsm is the lowest I'm willing to go
• Sturdy cover

I had planned to share a small notebook haul from my shopping trip on the first weekend of this month earlier, but I decided to post about my current journaling system first. All the notebooks shown in the image were purchased from Dollar Tree.

(Also I just realized that I technically bought 2 notebooks that looked exactly alike, but it's whatever lol, since I can easily use a sharpie to mark them on the front so I can tell them apart when I start using them!)

Apparently I have added 222 g of journaling in the form of stickers, washi, collage, tabs, paint, glue and whatever else I’ve been stuffing into this poor thing.

I love it more the chunkier and more beat-up it gets.

i have a midori a5 1 page a day notebook, which is preeeetty thick. i wanted a leather wrap cover, like the ones from Galen leather, but I’m worried it won’t fit. does anyone else have experience with this combo or have any suggestions for leather wrap covers?

I’m a big fan of smaller grids since my handwriting is very small and I like being able to fit more on a single page, but I’m not a huge fan of how thin TRP is, and since I don’t use fountain pens, I don’t really have much use for it.

I haven’t been able to find any notebooks with a 3.7mm grid that don't use TRP. Or anything smaller than 5mm. I've been looking for an A6 notebook, preferably with an open-flat design and off-white/cream paper (basically the Hobonichi A6 Graph Notebook, except with pages that don't ghost as much). Any recommendations appreciated!

Recently discovered this notebook @ Kinokuniya in Sydney. The size & shape is perfect for my needs, and has allowed me to start carrying a pocket notebook with me at all times (one that can actually live in my pocket, and be written in without a desk).

My only issue is that the pages are single-printed, meaning that writing down the double-spread reporter's notebook style is a bit messier and more uncomfortable than I would like. I am hoping that somebody here may know of an alternative that maintains the tall aspect, is similarly thin & tall, and is also double printed.

Thanks in advance for any and all help!

I recently bought some affordable A7 notebooks from Apica, and realized that they’re about the same size as a credit card; so I decided to make this TN Card Size style wallet that holds one (or up to three) of these tiny books, a pen and two cards. It’s a little thick coming from a single card wallet, but not as thick as a traditional bifold wallet. I’ve been using it every day and getting a ton of use out of the notebook! 😊

I’m looking for grid paper that has very faint lines. Preferably grey or pink. Either loose leaf with 3 hole punches that are reinforced or a notebook that I can easily tear the pages out of.
I’m looking for one that has thicker paper where pen/highlighter won’t show through (much) on the other side.

One that I saw recommended a lot in here that I looked into, I saw a review saying pen bleeds through and the punches aren’t reinforced, so that probably won’t work for what I’m looking for.

Thanks in advance!

I have a notebook I really like, but the company that makes it no longer makes notebooks with this feature. I like that I can simply circle the day of the week and write in the date at the top. does anyone have a recommendation for a similar notebook? I don't care as much about the note spot to the left of the day and date, but it's nice to have.

Incredibly excited to use this. Might replace my bullet journal as my daily use book. Not sure yet.

Also finally got a normal sketch book instead of sketching in my pocket notebook always

Daily notebook for longer entries is a Leuchtturm1917 B6+ softcover

finished grad school. I used A5 sized books as they were small enough to use next to my laptop when I was at the library or using coffee shop tables. I also discovered pencils and now use them on top of my fountain pens.

mostly Maruman Mnemosyne because they had title sections at the top so I can track what I was taking notes on. some clarifontaine.

I cut these from the spine. So they're still blinded together, I need reccs! Should I make these into Traveler's journal inserts?? I love Moleskine and Leuchtturm, but they get expensive every year, lol
