I’m a stationery nut – I do like buying a new notebook for an occasion and in my book it takes very little for something to be an occasion. However, in an effort to reduce the amount of things coming into the apartment, I decided to opt for a reMarkable paper tablet. I have to admit that I love it but as with about 100% of all of my tech, I don’t use it to its fullest capability. Now I do use it to 100% of my capability and I think that’s where the gap is. Anyway, on a recent system upgrade, I spotted a picture that showed notebooks with covers – and thought oh that’s nice, how do I get those??? Well it seems that I get those from the gap between what I can do and what it can do – I’d have to draw/design them myself. The convenient thing is that it’s possible to do on this as you don’t run out of paper – you can do it and redo it all you want ’til you’re happy – so it’s time to dip my toe into a world I have no ability in. On the other hand it’s my tablet – who’s going to see?
There’s one other thing that I really like about this – it’s that I’m writing, not typing (although I could) but it’s writing – it’s not falling out of practice. I don’t know why I feel it’s important to maintain a level of penmanship.
I’m rather looking forward to stepping up my usage and to see how far I can push myself.
