Alex / A.

After more than 40+ years as a corporate designer, I retired but remain passionate about creative work, stationery, and gadgets. This blog focuses on my journaling, observations on products I use, occasional inspiring images I find and weekend sketches.

While art and music are widely appreciated, journaling with doodles and colorful stickers is often unfairly seen as feminine. I believe journaling is essential because it provides a vibrant, personal outlet for anyone, regardless of gender, to express, relax, and reflect. I hope my experience in this blog offers friendly tips to everyone, especially to guys like me who want to rediscover the joy and benefits of journaling.

Spending quiet time with a notebook can be grounding, enjoyable, and empowering.
