Brownster<p>This is a thank you to all the people who post about their love for writing and fountain pens on here. Having rekindled my interest in them and buying a new pen with some fantastic coloured ink by <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/diamineinks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>diamineinks</span></a> its taken me on a path to rediscover writing. I was journaling on my computer so a natural place to start and switch to paper. And this has led me to discover so many ideas that are good for the mind and soul, like <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/morningpages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>morningpages</span></a> and <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/journaling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journaling</span></a> in general. Which has gotten me into bullet journalling. The only downside is, I have started collecting fountain pens and inks! Love it, thank you! <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/bulletjournal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bulletjournal</span></a> <br><a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/fountainpens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fountainpens</span></a></p>
Michael Gisiger :mastodon:<p>Hey, <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/fountainpen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fountainpen</span></a> and <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/journaling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journaling</span></a> people, I have a question for you:</p><p>I’m sure some of you also write <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/MorningPages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MorningPages</span></a>. I started last year as part of a 30-day challenge and have been writing my three A4 pages five to six times a week ever since. I use a cheap Oxford college pad, but with their fountain pen-friendly Optik Paper.</p><p>Now, my question: What do you do with your Morning Pages? Do you go back and read them later (Cameron recommends waiting at least eight weeks)? Do you keep the notebooks? I’ve already filled four college pads but have never reread them and don’t intend to. That’s why I’m considering disposing of them while ensuring my privacy.</p><p>What’s your take on this?</p><p>(Yeah, I'm bad at taking pictures, so this is a photo from Unsplash by Debby Hudson.)</p>
Liam<p>Really appreciating my journal today. </p><p>It's definitely where I have such conversations as: </p><p>"So, I did $ToDoItem1, Can I reward myself with watching a silly video? </p><p>No, there's still $ToDoItem2 left before silly video time. </p><p>Ok but *random extra spoon theft happened*, when I take care of *that* can I do video time? </p><p>..only after proper check in journal entry. *Then*, yes, we can do silly video time for a bit before going back to $ToDoItem2 "</p><p>not sure that this is what <a href="https://cathode.church/tags/morningPages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>morningPages</span></a> were *intended* to be.. but heck, if it gets me through my todos, it works.</p>

Michael Gisiger :mastodon:<p>Today was day 15 of my <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/30DayChallenge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>30DayChallenge</span></a> in writing <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/MorningPages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MorningPages</span></a>. First conclusion: (1) It's great to be able to use a different <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/FountainPen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FountainPen</span></a> every day, (2) the magical epiphany hasn't happened, but I'm now starting my daily planning in a more structured way, and (3) I can use my fountain pens even more often 😅</p>
Deer Witch<p>I’ve never been a <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/journaling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journaling</span></a> person, but I’m considering starting an occasional <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MorningPages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MorningPages</span></a> practice with a daily <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/Tarot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tarot</span></a> draw or spread.</p><p>Does anyone have any advice for a newbie to morning pages?</p>
Michael Gisiger :mastodon:<p>No April fool's joke: Today, I started a <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/30DayChallenge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>30DayChallenge</span></a> of writing <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/MorningPages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MorningPages</span></a> every day for, well, 30 days. Mainly as an excuse for using my <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/FountainPens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FountainPens</span></a> even more often 😅 No, seriously, ever since I read about this form of journaling, I wanted to try it, so I finally did. It took me about 12 minutes to fill the 3 A4 pages. I will report more about it in the future, as I was and am still quite sceptical about the whole thing.</p><p>(The photo below is from pexels.com)</p>

Monica Ayhens-Madon<p>Just me and the cats awake for some early morning sun, so opened the Rhodia notebook recommended from the fountain pen store and did <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/MorningPages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MorningPages</span></a> (or, you know, a page) to start easing the hands and wrists and arms into the new hobby. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FountainPen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FountainPen</span></a></p>

Lex C<p>And that's a wrap on the holiday and my extended weekend. Back to work today. Here's a little something I wrote a while back about starting a morning writing routine.

TheSpiritedWitch<p>I experimented with my <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/morningpages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>morningpages</span></a> this morning and wrote a character profile: who my parents wanted me to be. </p><p>...perhaps I should have saved that for the morning before therapy. It was uncomfortably eye-opening and made some of my shadow aspects painfully visible.</p><p>But it was also valuable. A little freaked out by the energy coming off the words, though; I did NOT expect a metaphysical result with that exercise and worried about what that means.</p>
