Resources for Writers
Otter is one of my favorite writing tools, it has saved me so much time and effort when it comes to drafting my writing, keeping track of ideas, and even doubles as an audio recording area for my YouTube channel / podcast!
It's essentially an AI driven note-taker / transcription service. Not only does it record the audio track for you, it also transcribes it in real time, and it will even offer up notes and keywords from each meeting / session as well.

Talens Art Creation Lake Blue Hardcover Sketchbook
I love these small hardbound sketchbooks --both for drawing as well as for writing. They are great for keeping in my bag while traveling or just while bumping around town. It makes it easy to just grab a pen and dive in, no matter where or for how l...

I got this as a little incentive-gift for myself when I was wanting to get back into writing by hand again and I had actually never used a fountain pen before. I like the weight of it a lot and I enjoyed learning how to write and draw with it properly. It's quite different and its one of my favorite utensils for creating.
Dryden Designs Fountain Pen and Notebook Clips ...
These are pretty much my favorite pens of all, I go through a few packs of these per year and probably should be buying in bulk at this point. The fine point with the smooth gel is such a pleasure to write with and it looks beautiful too!
