The Draft Journal

A collaboration with Baron Fig

A couple years ago, Joey Cofone, the co-founder of stationary company Baron Fig, reached out and asked if I wanted to collaborate with him on a notebook. I LOVE notebooks and have way too many of them so of course I said yes. It was a slow process because, life and pandemic, but now that journal, the Draft Journal, is available for your creative delectation. It’s such a beautiful notebook and I am so excited to have it out in the world.

This is a notebook for any writer—fiction, nonfiction, poetry, whatever—to use in the ways that best serve your writing. It opens flat. There are lots of blank pages made from great paper. There are pagebars where you can make notations. There are some organizational tools, like an outline template, character profiles, and a project planner, to help guide your creative work as well as a few pages of writing advice from me.

Those of you who are Ride of Die subscribers (the $350/yr tier) will receive a free journal in the mail. If your address has changed since you subscribed, e-mail me your new address, ASAP!

The giveaway is done!

For everyone else, you can buy the notebook at Baron Fig. If you do, I hope you find it useful and write incredible things in it.
