I use leather journals and an ink gel pen. I really like the feel of the pen on the paper. It wouldn't be the same to type it all out.
This is VERY appealing, but the number of journals must be staggering and eventually someone will find and maybe even read one of them. The next thing that I am worried about is desecrating a nice expensive journal with my ugly handwriting.

Edit: In fact, I haven't been using a pen for writing for so long that I forgot how to write properly. It takes me a lot of time to write something and it doesn't just slide easily. I am skipping letters.
Thanks for this!
