When I first started writing down my family’s history, I quickly found myself lost in a sea of chaos. My notes, research on complex family ties, and historical events were scattered everywhere: on loose scraps of paper, in countless computer files, and in voice memos I sent to myself whenever an idea for a scene struck me on the go.
I soon realized: I need order to make this heavy history tangible.

It was out of this very need that I designed the Premium Author’s Workingbook – my "Workbook." I wanted to create a tool that gathers everything needed to write a novel. A place where plot, characters, and thoughts converge. A companion you can take anywhere – to the archives, a café, or on your commute to work.

I truly hope that this notebook will serve as both an inspiration and a helpful guide for everyone embarking on their own storyteller’s journey.
As a visual person who spends all day typing on a computer, the analog experience was vital to me. I wanted to be able to write my thoughts in a book that feels like a document of remembrance itself. That’s why I made no compromises when it came to materials:

The Greige Linen: Robust enough for any journey and timelessly beautiful.

The 120g Premium Paper: So your thoughts stay on the page and don’t bleed through - a dignified space for every written word.

Interior Structure: Featuring custom grids and tables to help you keep the threads of your story together.

This Workingbook is my answer to creative chaos. It’s the tool I wished for so deeply back then – and I am thrilled to finally share it with you.
