The Moleskine Cahier Layout That Dethroned the Wonderland222
A tiny experiment with hand drawn calendars
To the calendar enthusiast whose physical impairments prevent them from using analog tools — Most of this article will be irrelevant to you, but the spirit of it is this: to experience the same kind of mind-refreshing reset a hand drawn calendar gives me, you could try a plain text calendar where each date is a Markdown subheading, and events are indented beneath.

I fell in love with the Wonderland222 planner last year after reading about it on Analog Office. It’s a Japanese-inspired, USA-produced gem that I am happy to recommend to anyone looking for a ready-made planner.
Planners, in essence, are calendars in notebook form. Some add room to make task lists, and some add a lot more, like pages for contact information, or goals, or inspirational quotes — but basically, a planner is just a portable calendar in notebook form.
