> After work I prep for dinner, keep working on my projects, and then drive 5 min west to the beach right before sunset and sit in the back of my car writing in my notebook. This is my favorite time of the whole day, a solid 30 min break where I don't look at my phone or any screen
Sounds like a wonderful time for unwinding. What would you be writing in those time?
Ideas, haikus, sketches. A long time ago a manager gave me a high end notebook as a end of year gift and since then I've really enjoyed writing with a lead pencil (I'm a mechanical pencil nerd) and my hi-poly eraser to erase mistakes :)
I think its the "process" of putting the pencil to the paper that I really enjoy, and seeing letters appear.
Get good paper and a good pen, it's great. Rhodia pads are great all around paper if you're not aware. I just scribble lists and notes tbh, but they're fantastic.
