That is what makes it usable standing up, in one\nhand, which a bound book is not.

A black Semender pen comes with it and clips to the elastic at the top of the pad, so you are not hunting for something to write with. Nothing else needs buying: it is ready the moment you open it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhat does the gilded initial mean, and is it optional?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a single letter, A to Z, pressed onto the cover in gold foil. You pick your letter from the list when you order. If you do not want one, choose the no-lettering option and the pad arrives with a plain cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow many pages, and how does it open?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eEighty sheets, which is 160 pages, and it opens from the top: you flip each page up and over rather than turning it sideways. That is the reporter format, and it is what makes it usable in one hand while standing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs it good for keeping a journal?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot really. It is built for short notes and lists rather than long entries, and the top-opening format works against writing page after page. For a journal, the bound Leather Notebook with 80 lined sheets or the refillable A5 Leather Journal are the right shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I refill it when the paper runs out?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, the pad is not refillable. When the 80 sheets are used, the paper is finished.
