the book is amazing and i love everything about it
the book is amazing and i love everything about it. the only down fall is if you want to use markers or any heavy ink on the paper it will bleed through to the other side.

Not Recommended for Pen Journaling / Fountain Pens
I know these are officially for dry media, but I have used sketch books similar to these for many years as journals, and I write with fountain pens, which are not especially wet. In fact, I see I have used several of this model over the last five years, but I think the paper quality has declined a bit in this instance. I am startled to see that the latest version of this book allows significant bleed-through (not complete, but visible) when using a fountain pen. The paper weight is 60 lbs; I recommend something with 75 lb weight; Art Alternatives makes such a book (I have also recently written in them with zero bleed-through with a fountain pen), and it is somewhat less expensive than this one, too.
