Paperage notebooks have built up quite a following as an affordable alternative to more expensive journals, but fountain pen users tend to ask a different set of questions. In this review, I take a close look at the notebook itself, the feel and texture of the paper, construction and binding, and how well it highlights inks' characteristics (and weaknesses).

I bought my Paperage Dot Grid here: amzn.to/4h43XRW

Question for you:
What affordable notebook has surprised you the most with how well it handles fountain pen ink? Let me know in the comments—I’m always looking for another one to test.
