Why the Sterling Ink N2 Size Notebook is Essential in My Journaling System
I spent a couple of months using the Sterling Ink N2 Common Planner because I was searching for something smaller, lighter, and easier to carry. At the time, my Sterling Ink B6 Common Planner was starting to feel bulky—especially once it filled out and became my everything book.
And while the N2 did solve the portability problem, it created a different one:
It limited how I think on paper.
That’s when my system shifted.
Instead of trying to make one planner do everything, I moved to a two-book system:
A B6 Common Planner for structured planning and long-form space
A N2 Weeks Size Notebook (or jotbook/quick notes journal) for daily capture, thinking, and overflow
Now, the two work in tandem—and honestly, it feels much more aligned with how I actually live and write.
