notebook pages way

notebook running block
Writing on a computer feels like a recipe for writer's block.

notebook running writing
I write on a computer, but I've run the complete gambit. When I was very young, I wrote with a ballpoint pen in school notebooks.

notebook prayer heart
When I am praying the most eloquently, I am getting the least accomplished in my prayer life.

Aiden Wilson Tozer
notebook writing gay
