A Little Love for a Quality Steno
Last year I purchased a Mnenosyne A5 Steno Twin Ring Stenographer’s notebook out of curiosity to see if I’d enjoy it. I’m a fan of a reporters notebooks but craved a wider surface for writing longform. This year I made it my dedicated work notebook and I’m happy with it, Finally a steno with quality paper that loves Pilot fountain pen ink! A couple weeks into the year and I’m smiling every time I turn a page. It’s also been great for quick pencil sketches.
Details
- Paper: Mnemosyne white with dotted light grey ruling.
- Ink: Pilot Black & Pilot Blue-Black (mixed)
- Pen: Lamy Safari, white with Black Clip and a medium black nib.
- Lighting: LED with a yellowish tint.

A simple screenshot and export solution presented itself in the ramblings of my previous entry. Apple Notes can take a screenshot and includes an export to markdown feature. Both are quick solutions for keeping a digital journal without typing the contents from a notebook or drafting an actual blog post in the editor. I’m surprised I didn’t learn of this earlier, I may begin to use this old iPad a little more.
Update: The Markdown export feature is only a link to the note.
