I’m with you, hand written notes are definitely better. When I write down things the knowledge gets into my memory much quicker then when I’m using my computer.

You're very thorough ... thank you!

This makes me think of the educator Charlotte Mason and how she viewed the learning process, not word for word copy but processing the information yourself to truly learn. Excellent video, I will watch twice for sure.

You are. Welcome! Pleased you found it useful 📖🕯️

I’m so happy to have found your videos! Your method seems to be a lot like what I’ve been looking for. Simple, coherent and quick. As others have said, hopefully you will do a video of a flip through, and maybe share topics you’ve researched for inspiration! Another thing that id love to see is one book annotated. I saw your annotations video (oops, mentioned it in my commonplace book too!) and saw that you underline with different types of lines. I have a color code when I read academic books (which tends to be on digital), and only use a yellow highlighter and blue pen to write on my physical books. Hopefully I’ll get to see more of your videos! Thank you for taking the time to upload these, you inspire me to read and learn more! Lots of love from Mexico Sol!

Hello Mariasol, I am very happy we came across and that you found the videos useful in any way. I will prepare a flipthrouh with an update, along with an annotated book. I like your simple color code for annotating physical books. Thank you for the feedback. (P.S. I just spent one transit day in the historic center of Mexico, what a rich culture!!) Love from Texas!

Thank you for sharing this way note taking. I am from the states and I took a class on short-hand years ago, and I still use a lot of it and would love a refresher with your take on it. Because sometimes even though I get notes written down using abbreviations a lot from muscle memory I have a hard time reading them later when I want to rewrite them. I am a note-taking junkie, and have tons of notebooks filled with various notes from books, listening to others, quotes, etc. I had no idea about the commonplace book until the last few years and now I want to get intentional about how I store so much information. Loved your commonplace video! Love your videos period and New Sub here!

I take a lot of handwriting notes too, as i'm a researcher in medieval literature, i cannot annotate on historical documents and sources! It's easier for me to have this kind of commonplace book. I didn't know it had a name, and i find your layout with the margin quite inspiring, i'll try to change a little my own layout to try this one! Thanks for sharing your journal with us!

Thanks a lot for this and the other videos about the commonplace book and indexing. I m not that esthetically oriented in my notebooks and once I managed to split apart in my head the beautiful art in your notebooks from the the very useful and well-researched information about structure, organisation, etc. It has dawned on me that there is mucho more in your videos for than I had thought. :) One question: do you take temporary notes (fleeting notes as they call them in the Zettelkasten method) and then transfer them permanently to your notebook, maybe after changing them? Or do you take notes on the fly (while reading, while wathcing a conference, etc.) on the final notebook and then you just keep them in the same notebook? I am now using a daily notebook to write down ideas, interesting quotes, etc and then I review to decied what is wortwhile keeping my commonplace book.

Thank you Daniel for your feedback! I am very pleased you found useful methods in my videos. Regarding your Interesting question 😉 I will say that most of the time, I take notes directly to my commonplace book (to avoid duplication), especially if I am reading and summarizing what I am learning at the same time. However, in many instances I need to capture important notes while I am away from my notebook, so I resort to taking a picture, open notepad in my phone, record my voice with a voice note 😂 or just write it down in any piece of paper until I add it in my CPB. The other situation is when I am reading a book without my notebook (lets say I am at a park or a beach), in that case I use my Annotation Codes to mark the areas that I will later add to my CPB. Any paragraph that is marked with letter (J) in the margins, means I need to (Journal) about it in my notebook. Something I frequently do with novels so I don't interrupt my reading with note-taking.

For the aged look (specially at page edges) I use the Distress Ink and blend it with the round foam tool (check the description box). As for the stickers, I have a collection that typically evolves around the vintage items, art masterpieces, historical figures. I added some of the main ones that I found still available in the description box. I also added some paper ephemera. If you want to check about a specific one, please let me know. 😉

@@journaldesylvie Thank you thank you. It sounds like a lot of effort, fun & creativity. Just had a thought that you 'might' want to make a video about your process, with good SEO's you might even attract some more viewers from the crafting groups. Just a thought. Autism does that to me.
