All the little things around my writing, a mnml digest
A curated journey through five articles, posts and podcasts that are speaking to me this week. Pulled widely from a week’s worth of reading. Shared in ten sentences or fewer. A fun means of reflecting on the blogs I regularly read in a way that spreads the link love.
This week: writing is about all the things around my writing. The music I listen to shapes my mood. Drinking the beverage on my desk gives me contained moments to stall, or daydream, or reflect. The notebooks I write in. The pens I use. The inks to hand. Even the organization — and lack of organization — of my desk.
My Creative (Writing) Process (KraftyCats). Rewarding drinks and “ambient music” that leaves space for my own thoughts are also part of my writing process.
How I use my Hobonichi (Stationery Pizza). Every spread gets a job. Every page plays a role.
journaling ii: a new start! (inksharks). I switch up my desk and tools often. The notebooks I use, and the entire process, to change over time.
Ghosts of Planners Past: Filofax (Writing at Large). And it seems I’m in great company.
Mess Up Your Good, Premium, Luxury Notebooks (Analog Office). More than anything, “[y]our notebooks need you to mess them up.” Mess that leads to joy or a fruitful idea is mess well worth creating.
