Stationery in 2025: What are your plans?

Hachimonjiya Life Notebook

It’s still holiday(-ish) season around these parts, but I did spend the weekend getting caught up on work. Shipping, emails, planning - all of that fun stuff. I wasn’t quite ready to jump back into the review queue today, but did spend some time brainstorming plans for 2025. What will my year in stationery look like?

Today, I want to ask you the same: What does your upcoming year look like? Write more? Ink more? Use more? Buy less? All of those things are on the table for me, along with fun and unique ways to accomplish them.

We will be talking about our plans for 2025 on this week’s podcast, and I’d love to share some of your thoughts and goals. One of mine is pictured above. What are my plans for this notebook? I’d be lying if I said I knew 100% the path it will take, but that is part of the fun.

Leave a comment below, email me at hello@penaddict.com, message me on Mastodon or Bluesky, and share something stationery related that you are going to work on in 2025.

After today, this week’s schedule will be mostly back to normal. Blog posts are back for the Review Crew™, and I have a full week of streams and podcasts lined up.

2025 - I’m coming for you!
