We Love Words....

"Find something only you can say." 
James Dickey


This journal features the following quote on the front cover: "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined" - Henry David Thoreau. 

Journal measures 8" square with hard cover, matte finish and has 200 lined acid-free sewn pages.




Reinventing the desktop memo board, memosphere shape-shifts its flat surface for a more three-dimensional presentation. 

Write and find your memos and notes in a new way, on this spinning, globe-shaped white board. 

Black dry-erase pen is included. 



It was a dark and stormy night, the kind of night that wraps itself around you like a sweat-soaked cheap suit. We were just about to leave the office when we saw him, er, it - the sticky notepad, run through with a fine ballpoint. Despondent, we made a grocery list. Thinking it through, we realized this 300-page sticky notepad would be perfect for other tasks as well: poison pen notes; letters of resignation; hit lists; even favorite songs to download later. Handy that it comes with that "blood-spattered" pen - maybe too handy. Now where was that guy with the fez?.....

Why does anyone write in a journal? Because we've all got dysfunctions to explore - at least those of us who own up to them. Journals provide us with a trusted place to be entirely honest. And this journal is the perfect gift for your favorite dysfunctional loved one, including yourself. 

Features over 70 thought-provoking quotes of psychological realism.
