In Praise of Paper

This is a photo of some of my sketchbooks and watercolour journals. This collection is only an indication of my love of paper and books; it doesn't include the journals I use for writing only. Those include separate ones for writing down prayers, dreams, ideas, and business plans.

These sketchbooks are used for travel journalling,  sketching product ideas, and creating small images for my blogs, emails, and to license to gift products.

With the advent to technology, one might be tempted to think that paper will go the way of silent movies and eight-track tapes. Not so. Too many people love working with paper, writing instruments, and paintbrushes to give up paper. Even those of us who love tech gadgets can also have an abiding fondness for the feel of paper and pen in hand.

I love paper! Especially old books! But there is also something satisfying about writing pen or pencil on paper that is entirely different from typing. I can't even get used to drawing with a wacom tablet! It just feels different and I don't like the feeling as much. :-/

I know, Mandy. I love old books too. I have a Wacom tablet and it does take some getting used to, but it's never going to be the same as paint on paper.
