I’m not the most knowledgeable about pens, but thanks to my pen-nerd girlfriend I seem to have started a collection. 😆 So I’m interested, what are your favourite pens to journal with? Do you use different pens in different journals or for different purposes? I wanna know! Here’s my accidental collection of “can’t live without” pens. From left to right: 🧡 Orange Lamy Safari, blue ink, for general-purpose writing 🖤 Black Lamy Safari, black ink, for general writing in black 💚 Green Lamy Safari (I know, it’s a bit of a theme), blue ink, for writing in French 💙 Sailor Fude de Mannen, 40 degree nib, black waterproof ink, for ink sketching 🩷 Uniball One, black gel pen, for journal layouts and doodles

Lots of people in the intros thread said that they liked reading so I thought we should have a bookish thread! 📖 What are you reading at the moment? Are you enjoying it? Didn’t you love it when…? Let us know! Please make sure to clearly mark spoilers if you’re going to post details about books!

So the conventional bullet journal wisdom is that if you keep everything in one journal you will always know where everything is, it integrates your life, etc. But recently I started an art notebook to keep track of ideas for paintings and it quite rapidly turned into a kind of bullet journal. So my question is: do you use just one journal at a time, or do you have several on the go at once? What do you put in a different journal? And what do you like about your approach?
