If you spend a lot of your time writing, you will not be happy with just functional tools. You want beauty; you need to connect with the page, experience it, enhancing your writing process. For this you will need an excellent combination of quality writing instrument and exceptional notebook. The extra encouragement you get from this makes writing a pleasure, no longer a mundane chore.

You may think we are being a little over the top. After all, it's only as notebook and pen. Write with a top quality pen and you take a huge step. Next step, a Moleskine notebook. This is not just an inanimate notebook; you will need to buy one to understand. However, a word of warning. You don't buy just the one, so once you start, there’s no turning back.

So what is Moleskine? It's a very famous brand of notebook manufactured by an Italian company. The name Moleskine may imply that the skin of a black, furry, burrowing creature is used in the making of this notebook. Fear not, the notebook is not bound in moleskin, but in oilcloth-covered cardboard. It also features an elastic band to hold the notebook closed when not in use and a sewn spine that allows it to lie flat when open. Ever present features are also rounded corners, a ribbon bookmark and expandable pocket within the rear cover.

Allegedly, the Moleskine notebook has been used by some well known artists and writers, including Picasso, Matisse, and Hemingway. What better tool to use with your Mont Blanc Meisterstuck or Parker Duofold? Quality on quality, it has to be. Ebay currently has these available.
