The green Parker I mentioned is almost exactly this one here. This one is a 1933 or 1934. You can tell by the push button at the back end hidden by the end cap. The 1932 model is identical, but the push button looks different. http://www.estilograficas.net/parker-vacumatic-oversize-green/
I use Skilcraft green logbooks, with M3 post-it notes stuck to the pages inside, with whatever pen I can find. I don't like writing by hand, thought. My handwriting looks like a five year old's. But, I force myself to do it so I can catch ideas when I find them, plus its supposed to make you think a different way than if you type.
Orange and black covers. I prefer the 'dot pad' style. https://igndesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Rhodia-Black-Dot-Pad-8.25x12.5-1.jpg
I hate writing in ink, for some reason (and that's not because I can't erase, since I practically never erase anything even when writing in pencil)... Also, to be fair I have actually upped the quality of the notebooks I use a little recently. About a month ago I discovered Whitelines notebooks (essentially notebooks with white lines instead of grey), and I absolutely love them! My notes (mostly lecture notes so far, but definitely going to use these for fiction as well) are actually readable!
I write on pink tinted A4 pads. They're supposed to be for special education (I think they help dyslexic kids read better) but I spend too long staring at stark, white things both on screen and off to voluntarily use it for anything I personally do. My word processors are set up the same way; same exact shade of pink too. Easier on the eye, easily found on my desk among any other bits of paper. I always used to like writing in fountain pen when I was at school and I certainly see the attraction today but it's just not the best idea if I want to write in a hurry. Aside from anything else, my handwriting was never great and has only gotten worse. A biro lacks that certain something but they also ensure my handwriting is legible and it doesn't matter if I lose them.
99 cent spiral notebook and whatever pencil I can find that has an eraser. Then everything gets transferred to my laptop, and the editing begins.
I write on anything, I've even written ideas on the back of envelopes while out shopping or whatever :/
Are any of you fountain-pen-writers left handed? I like the idea of a fountain pen, but I feel like it wouldn't work properly since I'd be pushing it across the page instead of pulling it. Experience?
I like the one-stop option of typing straight into website's form. For easy access I use "Electron." It never requires saving and is on the taskbar, within reach. I like wordpad for non-Microsoft Word stuff, since it is built into my computer and does not require a stupid-scription. As for writing longhand, I jot ideas, not the longer stuff (ironically). I think I'll name Electron-- Chalkee, since it looks like a chalkboard. I think I'll call my Wordpad-- Bart. It draws from the fact it looks like the opposite of a chalkboard (a whiteboard)-- but whiteee seems racist and boardee is yawnsome. Bart is short, fun, and resembles "board."
I used to write by hand in those stenographer's notebooks - the ones with the spiral binding horizontal at the top rather than down the left side. I did the entire first draft of my first novel that way. Now I have a stack of Moleskine notebooks of various sizes, from pocket size up through roughly 8.5"x11". They take FP ink well. They also have cool features like a built-in cloth bookmark (classy!) and a pocket in the back cover (also classy). I also use some nameless Staples hardback house-brand notebooks that have nice heavy paper. They're good for writing with a fountain pen. And I'm experimenting with a Mead Grad notebook, which is nice but doesn't have quite as hard a back as the Staples brand. I have to clip it to a clipboard if I want to write in bed or in my easy chair. Still, it has two pockets in it, plus a table of conversion factors on the inside back cover. (I never use those. I'm a total nerd and I have a ridiculously-overpowered programmable graphic calculator that has every conversion factor known to man in it. And if it doesn't, it lets me define my own, so there's that.) When I write by hand in a notebook, I write the text of the story only on the right-hand pages. I reserve the left-hand pages for notes and basic on-the-fly revisions. That works for me!
My handwriting is terrible so most of my writing is all on my computer. I do write down notes on what ever scraps of paper I can find when an idea hits and my phone is not close by.
