I write for a living.
It’s bloody different if I were
just writing for myself and I were cursing in between pages of leather bound
diaries because of how bad my day went. What if things turned out for the best?
There would be a litany of gratitude that’s about two pages long.
I’d like to think any person who
still writes entries on a journal would react the same way. But-let’s go back
to writing for a living.
I do. I write for a living.
My adage is: If you need
technical or creative outputs, call me. But I sure dang won’t complete your
thesis for you-(edit, sure I could do that, spot grammatical errors and misspelled
words, but don’t let me do all the writing for you, your thesis grade is
something you have to earn).
All my writing and brainstorming
can sometimes get lost on pad paper. In fact, I’ve lost pad papers all over the
place.
This is where notebooks come in
handy. I even plan my blog posts in notebooks and keep track of my writing assignments
and meetings in notebooks. There’s the ever-present to-do list, structure of
most reports I have to do (a concept note has a different format from that of
an executive summary), and dates of meetings.
With my need for stationery, I’ve
decided to introduce a new feature section of my writing materials purchases
which I do frequently. Allow me to tell you which gel pens are good, which
post-it-notes do stick, and where to get cheap and cute notebooks, and useful executive
gifts appropriate for professionals. School’s about to start next month, let’s
also see how we can maximize a school supply budget for the kids, shall we?
Stick with me, friends. Scribbles
is the newest section here on Raisie Speaks. It’s birth is inspired by my need
and love for writing and cutie patootie stationery.
What’s your must-have writing
instrument? Let me know!
