Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by J.K. Rowling was the first book in my First Chapters Journal (FCJ) Project. I used Diamine Aurora Borealis in my Pilot Kakuno with a fine nib. Why did I choose this book? It seemed fitting to start my FCJ Project with a childhood favorite: Harry Potter and the […]

Intro to First Chapters Project
What is the First Chapters Journaling Project? The First Chapters Journaling Project is quite simple. It’s a journal that I’m keeping with handwritten copies of the first chapters of my favorite books.

Journal Chronicles (1): Sojourner Notebooks
I’ve previously talked about my Sojourner Notebooks from Rowena, but since the post got deleted, I figured why not write another one. I absolutely love my Sojourners, and highly recommend Rowena’s work. Rowena’s Sojourner Notebooks are Traveler’s Notebook-esque notebooks. They’re made from leather and are basically covers for your notebooks. It’s a system that allows you […]
