I have a friend who havswhat amounts to an obsession with stationery and can't resist buying, 'just another notebook'. She's not even a writer!
I came across this article which made me laugh about stationery obsessions and writers.

And then I found a couple of sites devoted to special stationery - and pens.

I met the man from Lincoln Pen Company sometime ago but his pens are a little out of my league.(till I sell my novel for millions that is).

I wouldn't say I have a special notebook but I always have a notebook with me and I have a nice little stock of used ones that I paw through every few, well, years when I'm really stuck for an idea. That doesn't mean I've never been caught without one. I had to hold the whole first paragraph of my third novel in my head all the way to work one day not because I'd forgotten my notebook but because I'd taken the pen out of my case.
