@dana_cz it depends on what I want to use the notebook for. Dotted for writing, blank for drawing.

@dana_cz unhelpfully; blank usually, sometimes dotted

@legionsofbob No, that's helpful, thank you! Would you say 9 times out of 10 you'd reach for a blank one?

@dana_cz Grid, with Dot Grid in a close second & blank third. Lined is my least liked, however I do prefer Lined for copying books.

@dana_cz Blank, unless there are very faint lines or grids

@dana_cz Normally dotted but right now I'm using a blank TR notepad with a guide sheet and it's probably the most flexible option. Only limit is that the paper has to not be too thick to see through a little. I could print/make new guide sheets for whatever lines/dots/grids I want and change any time.

@dana_cz for sketch/build, I'm all graph, for notes lined, for art, I get those for my kids whom are the real artists

@dana_cz @toga Actually for drawing I don’t have a preference. I like how pre printed stuff works through a sketch/painting. When writing I do have a preference for lines or at least dots

@dana_cz For me it depends a whole lot.

For long-form journaling, and general writing -> Lined

For math, chess and an anti-bullet journal I'm keeping (I got the collections in it and no planning at all) -> Graph

For drawing and art -> Blank

I tried dotted notebooks but didn't adapt well to them in the past.

@dana_cz

Lined, by habit, but dotted-in-a-grid makes a lot of sense.

@dana_cz

Depends on the reason for buying it.

@dana_cz squared. I realised at some point during high school that this works for writing just as well as lined books do, so why bother with both kinds and inevitably having too many of one type?

Dotted is the closest alternative so I'll vote that. Never tried one of those I think

@dana_cz

I am partial to grid. Though I am planning on getting a pocket notebook and I am not sure if I want dotted or lined.

@kemotep I like that dotted is versatile in case you want to doodle sometimes. 😁
