I use notebooks and sketchbooks a lot and something I’ve started doing recently is covering errors with sticky notes. Need to re-write your second verse? Throw a sticky note over the old version and rewrite it. (then I glue it down with a glue stick) Same with the sketchbook - totally ashamed of that embarrassing thing you just drew? Cover it with a sticky note and try again!

My friend Keith uses sticky notes to plan out ideas for writing, decks or strategy. Absolutely blew my mind watching him use them and rearrange them seamlessly. Felt like an idiot. Sticky notes forever.

I love writing poems on sticky notes. They are ephemprial.

i don’t like writing on books directly but if i plan to revisit one / use it as a source in some kind of writing project i will aggressively annotate on adhesive paper; it feels like a happy medium between the two for me, and if i’m using at as a source removing the annotations as i go along is a fun little progress marker

Another solution I’ve started using recently… where is the page where I wrote out my current patch-bay configuration? Oh I just need to turn to the tab I marked with PATCH. the plastic holder thing clips onto your notebook and then they’re always with you (unless you forgot your notebook somewhere)

This is an android flip phone that I deleted all the apps off of. it allows me to not be distracted by my phone (except for when I use it to hot-spot my computer to get all that sweet dopamine). Honestly, my sim card goes back and forth between this and an iphone… but life is a lot easier to manage when the Cat S 22 is in charge (which it currently is not).

my trusty sewing machine where I make clothes fit just how I want them to (or at least try). I get impatient with pinning things though, so I do a lot of winging it and making things uneven.
