    This is still one of my favorite videos that you filmed. CS Maverick has always been one of my most cherished leathers, and I have gone through and sold several, trying to find a perfect fit. Yesterday, I got my hands on a secondhand (but newish) A5 classic maverick and my white unlined 1917 Leuchtterm went right in and it all so perfect! I also have a pocket deluxe Maverick that is seriously the cutest thing ever. But yeah, I watch this video often and thank you for all your beautiful, sweet, and informative videos.

I especially appreciated your comment towards the end that it IS a commitment - that's inspired me to keep on with mine... too often, I've moved onto some new system too quickly instead of keeping going, letting it bed in and getting accustomed to it. I've stuck with my new TN about a month now and can already feel it becoming invaluable :)

    Love your videos and set up. I started with two pens and now within a month I have gone up to 10. Kinda went wild this month. You inspired me to get a Buttered Rum Mr. Darcy in the A5 size. I also have a pocket and personal and love the pocket because it can use field note sized inserts but the A5 is so much easier to write in especially for journaling. Hope to see more Fountain Pen and Journal videos in the near future. Take care.

    I'm definitely going to be investigating this whole travel journal concept! I just started using a planner last year. I've found as I age that I really need to be writing things down! But the planner just didn't seem to provide quite enough room for everything. I love the idea of a portable office/companion. Yours is gorgeous, and I love how you've made it yours uniquely with all the little touches. I would be very interested in some fountain pen videos. I'm clueless completely about them, but it sounds like they would take writing to a whole other level. You've inspired me!

I just watched a video on your collection. I just watched a video by Sarah Martinez on vintage pens. I just ordered my 1st vintage Parker duofold from late 40s. I’m waiting to get it. So excited. I plan to watch more of your videos and just subscribed. I couldn’t get a maverick a5 but was able to get an a6 and a pocket size. So sad they can’t do any more Mavericks. Although I shouldn’t complain because I have an a5 from a company in England.

    I love how you document your ink. So organized. I am currently using a B6 traveler’s notebook. I’m waiting for one I custom ordered from Leather Imagined on Etsy. It’s taking 4-6 weeks, which is a lifetime for someone like me with very little patience. Temporarily, I’m using a TN from Navie Travels. I’ve watched several of your videos. I enjoy them. It seems you use or have used several sizes. Previously I’ve used an A5 size TN from Planner Perfect. I have also enjoyed Moleskines. I used to be a Franklin Planner user also. I’ve never heard of Chic Sparrow until I started watching your videos. I recently purchased some Lindock pouches based on one of your videos. Waiting for them to arrive. I love how you love your journals and appreciate the beauty of your journals and fountain pens. My favorite fountain pens are the Brass Iraurita Pocket Fountain pens (I have four) and the Kaweco (I have 2 - white and mint). Keep those videos coming. Thank you.

    This is my favorite TN video of all time. I love that you are enjoying your coffee in the morning sun. I also have the Lightning Struck Maverick and it is my love too. Mine has two tiny splash marks from dew drops that one of my plants shared with it - so cute!!! It's an A5 like yours and i have a Platinum Preppy 05 nib in the pen loop loaded with the stock ink. I am devoted to this $5 pen because it carries me back to the late 50s when I was in 3rd grade with a pilot fountain pen and lived my life with ink stained fingers and scraped knees year round. good times. More importantly did you hear about the E-class TNs that Chic Sparrow just released? No pen loop but they offer an adjustable pen loop that you can attach to a dashboard or whatever. You customize it to the dircumference you need to fit your pen.

So my everyday carry is an A5. I use it for everything, planning, personal, work and even journaling (although I have my own journal that I keep it at home) sometimes u got the urge to write and I use my A5 for that hahaha its weird cause I buy bags based on "will it fit my journal?" xD

This video totally changed my mind once again and I really think I am going to go for it and get an A5. How do you keep the LT inside? Is it just on its own elastic or is it strung through the back?

    I also have that Leuchhturm in mine. With TNs like this one you have two options for holding that big book. The video above shows a classic set up and at 4 minutes she holds the TN open by its two covers and dangles the contents. this TN has 4 strings like this 1 23 4. Her setup looks like she has the wool folder and calendar under string 1 and the other folder and ink book under 4; the big journal uses 2&3. Some people slide the front cover under 2 and the back under 3 but it looks like she open the book in the middle and slid the book under 2&3 so they rest in that middle gap that you can see at the beginning of the video. Another way to hold it is to not use the strings but slide the back cover of the book into the secretarial pocket on the back cover of the TN. Pretty sure that blue journal is her most precious thing in there so she's got it locked in with the two middle strings. Sorry for a LONGwinded explanation.

    Hi, Just found your site. I also love to journal a lot. I feel bad for my kids when I pass away they have to deal with them. Have journaled as a young person, as soon as I could print. LOL I too liked fountain pens and have been thinking about getting my pens out and running. Have not used them in a long time. Do people still use blotters. Sorry if I sound old, I am. LOL

    I really need to understand the TN as a wallet. I've used smaller notebooks as a wallet only. I always wonder about those who use a working TN as a wallet (I also carry a lot in mine, including but not limited to restaurant gift cards, insurance cards, stamps, etc). I can't imagine lugging a large TN around as a wallet. Or, being in a coffee shop and running to the restroom - if I don't have valuables in mine (cash and cards), I leave on the table. How do you manage? Running into the grocery store - what do you do with it?

I use fountain pens with waterproof ink too. Not vintage, but a crazy japanese caligraphy one called fude nib. It's only £12 I think but it has an unusual nib, anyway...Thanks. I love to look at how people do their own journals etc.edit...I've just noticed a liked video oy yours, it reminds me, the fude nib is a sailor pen, I use the green one, I think there's a blue one with a different angle.
