New Arrivals: Write Notepads Restock, and Notebooks from WMS & Co!

We’ve been running low on our Write Notepads Stock, so last week we put in for a shipment of Dot Grid Spiral Notebooks, Reporter Notebooks, and more of the long-time favorite “Chesapeake” Pocket Notebooks. We currently now have most colors available, with the Dot Grid Notebooks available in Forest, Coral, and Arctic Blue for the first time.

We also received a small number of pocket notebooks and journals from WMS & Co., makers of the famously large desk pads, color pads and calendars. As it turns out, they make a pocket “jotter” set containing their griege (grey) paper, as well as jotters and larger journals with covers featuring vintage French stationery ephemera.

Many thanks for all your support, and welcome to Summer!

The T.G.S. Curated Shop is an authorized retailer of all brands sold, including Write Notepads and WMS & Co.

This Just In: Reading Accessories in the Curated Shop

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have read a recent post in which I talk about reading, and how it’s probably my second-most obsessive hobby other than pens. In all honesty, both are better described as a lifestyle more than a hobby - you tend to embrace the analog side of things wholesale or you don’t. For example, in addition to all the pens, notebooks, and writing pads I have scattered around my house, there are also hundreds of bookmarks stuck in cups or tucked into books that I’ve either read or am in the process of reading.

When I first had the (admittedly crazy) idea to launch the T.G.S. Curated Shop last year, one thing I felt very strongly about was trying to merge these two passions together in some way - not to be just another pen and stationery retailer, but to offer carefully selected reading accessories and other items that would be of interest to those who maintain a strong analog presence in their life.

To this end, I’m happy to introduce the following brands to The Curated Shop: WMS & Co, who make these very nice folded metal book weights and sterling silver page points, perfect for holding your hardcover book or journal open while you read or write; and Book Darts, a longtime favorite brand of mine who were kind enough to collaborate with me on these special edition T.G.S. tins. Of course, these all pair perfectly with the Write Notepads Classic Hardcover Notebook, now back in stock in all three colors.

Many thanks for your support!
