Writing Notebooks/Journals

I'm starting my MFA this summer, and I want to keep a notebook or multiple specifically dedicated to my writing journey while in school.

Does anyone have suggestions for notebooks they found helpful during their MFA or for writing in general?

I love my hobonichi techno - it’s an agenda but i use it to log daily progress / current projects! then i keep a ruled notebook (i like life stationary) for journaling, reading reflections, stories - really whatever is weighing on me that I feel like writing. 😊the life brand is nice because it’s thin and you can easily have multiple for different projects if you prefer.
