Fact #1. The earliest bound books appeared in the first century CE. They could have been considered journals of sorts in that they were all hand-written. For the next 1,400 years, book binding took place mainly at monasteries among monks transcribing religious texts. It wasn't until the printing press arrived that bound books contained printed pages.
Fact #2. A journal is an intensely personal thing. Their construction is nothing short of miraculous. The paper was manufactured from felled trees that were ground to a pulp. They were refined to smoothly receive and hold ink. The bindings of string or glue are masterfully worked into the edges of the pages and the cover. The cover itself is hewn and processed from the flesh of animals or the pulp of the same trees torn down for the pages within.
Fact #3. Your writing style will go far in determining what journal suits you. Some types contain features for the more right-brained writers out there. These include tables of contents that you can fill out yourself for better organization, or entire systems of goal-setting and achievement guidelines.
Fact #4. We've always romanticized poets and writers of the romantic and early transcendentalist movements. These were writers whose works felt raw and unencumbered by the trappings of their society's bourgeois ideals. As such, there's a rustic quality to leather-bound options that's irresistible to the romantic writer. The pages are usually unrefined, however, so they can make sloppy handwriting even worse. Their bindings are also usually a little less secure than the more mechanically-produced types.
Fact #5. The more refined versions available for purchase offer you a much more professional experience. This can be vital if you want to keep one with you in an office setting or some other professional sphere. These also tend to have much more secure elastic closures to them.
