Why i use multiple journals - Sylvia's Studio

This is one of my journals. It’s passport sized and perfect for on the go journalling.  It’s the one I used today, but I may or may not use it tomorrow. You...

I tried making some "blanks" to get rid of this scrungly old book I bought. One I used diluted mod podge on the base layer and it went super bubbly. The other I used Nearly Art glue but didn't spread it all over and it also went bubbly. I wouldn't mind the crinkling but the air bubbles annoyed me. I have managed to fix some by slicing through and injecting glue but still annoying. I guess the answer is to use thicker glue and spread it all over?

Perhaps odd for a big, bearded fella, but I bought myself a (slightly late) 2026 calendar to scribble things down in. And it's cool and artsy and has a fox on it.

I'm finding, more and more, I need to go analog with things. Having my Proton Calendar sync'd across devices is okay, but sometimes I need to scribble. Especially now everything is getting a bit 'ectic. It's breaking my head.

So I picked this up. From Prism of Starlings. Who is in Scotland. And it's ace.

Aside from lots of bugfixes and stabilizing improvements to the codebase, some notable items were:
- New languages added, deeper translation of UI & better pluralization (p11n)
- In-app settings editor
- Templates support looping and date offsets for injections

Super huge thanks to @zygoon for their contributions with Polish 🇵🇱 translations AND Snap yaml config!! ​​ We're live on the Snapcraft store now: https://snapcraft.io/fern. Couldn't have done it without their guidance.

Release notes are here: https://codeberg.org/InodeLabs/fern/releases/tag/v1.2.0

Looking to add some color to my daily #journalling - what do you recommend? Currently I use A5 notebook & black pens

Colored pens? Oil crayons? Colored pencils? Other ideas?

If you've got something that works great for you, please share - pictures & inspiration would be great to see.

Second year of keeping a #diary:
- going all in on the ring binding system, including getting the overpriced puncher was the right choice. I know from the past already that enriching the diary by taping or gluing stuff in just doesn't work for me. Punch a hole in it and clip it in works perfectly. I think without the puncher I wouldn't like it half as much.
- self design & print also 👍
- frequency and monthly reviews have room for improvement.

Art, sex, nature: why is everything sold to us as a means to an end, rather than an end in itself?

How a reductive worldview is stripping meaning from our most valued activities.

Today and tomorrow are the last days that my #urbanfantasy thriller series "The Arcane Revolution Trilogy" as well as my tarot-driven #journalling #rpg are on sale until the end of the month, in all print and digital formats. I put them on sale to celebrate my rabbit's clean pathology and surgical recovery!
