In Tuesday’s newsletter, I wrote about my four notebooks:
Before I get started, I want to say that this is my system, and I do not necessarily recommend it to others! Writing is my job, so it would make sense that I’d have a bunch of notebooks. My intention with this letter is to be descriptive not prescriptive.
If you’re interested in starting a notebook habit, I encourage you to just buy a notebook or The Steal Like an Artist Journal and write or draw in it every day.
I do not endorse any brands, but if you’d like to try out what I’m currently using here are links to my logbook, pocket notebook, commonplace diary, and diary.
I write in them with all kinds of pens — I’ve got a big list on my gear page.
Here’s a little teaser I posted to Instagram:

One of the things I try to emphasize is that writing is my job. I don’t think everybody should keep a notebook, and I don’t care if everybody keeps a notebook. Let alone four notebooks! People ask, so this is what I do.
