Full journals, empty journals
It’s time to say goodbye to the Letts of London notebooks I’ve been journalling in for the past eight months and I must say they turned out to be very good books indeed. The paper was decent quality, perhaps not so keen on heavy layers of ink, but then I didn’t expect or need it… Continue reading
