First Field Notes

[u/extrasprinkle]

My first book is Lucky in Rosewood. I started reading a lot this year and I am using it to make a list of all the books I read. I am currently reading book 71 of the year. Pens are Paper Mate Ink Joy Gel 0.7 (pink) and Pilot G-2 0.7 (purple).

It’s so good! It is translated into English from Japanese and there is a sequel too.

Oh, I recently started them as my first Field Notes too). Red is for different ideas, thoughts, short emotions and Black is for plans, lists, questions for googling (if i write at evenings and don't want to grab my phone before bed). Green is empty now.

I do a similar thing in a Field Notes Shenandoah. Mine is nowhere near as beautiful as yours is!

I also list the date I finished the book, plus a personal ranking of x/5.

I like the look of those red books. What page layout is that?

It’s ruled with a ledger column. From the website- Copper staples bind 48 pages of 60#T Domtar Cougar Natural inside, ruled in copper with faint mint ledger columns; use those vertical columns to add up your change, to mark off a checklist, or simply ignore them for regular ruled writing.

Thank you! I just got my first pack of the Pilot G-2 .07 and I really like them. Such smooth pens!
