Any Pen People here?

Precisely. Moreover, it's not like A5 is microscopic. Not all that much smaller than letter sized.

Meantime, I experimented with writing roughly 750 words today in my "morning pages" notebook. It took me about 50 minutes. I don't know that I could sustain that time commitment as a daily practice.

I used to be strictly a letter sized guy, but since getting “into” notebooks as a thing because I missed the tactile feel of writing, I’ve settled on A5 to be the all around ideal for me. I use a lot of top spiral letter sized stuff still, but I like that A5 fits easily in any bag or briefcase I own and it’s small enough to write will sitting just about anywhere, whether or not I have a desk to write on. I’ve done tons of writing in A5 and I never felt like I have to abridge myself because of the physical size of the paper. In fact, the notebook that I keep in my bag at all times is the A5 Orbitkey Compendium:

I do plan on getting the A4 size at some point, but the A5 is my go to notebook.

Inked last night, used at work today

Today's arrivals: Platinum Prefounte and Sailor Tuzu, plus the cute Pilot Kakuno for my SO.



I haven't inked them yet but impressions so far:
- the Prefounte feels incredibly cheap and even if it writes like $1M, that still won't mitigate the cheapness
- the Tuzu feels OK, kind of on par with my 78G+, not sure if I'll like its substantial girth, we'll see
- the Kakuno, I expect it to be there on par with the above, but it hasn't been opened yet

Meanwhile, funnily enough, my 78G+ has become my fave? I'm now thinking of getting more of them, curious if the opaque versions use the same good-feeling plastic as the demo or something lower-grade.
