I bought a Big Idea Design Slim Click Pen. It is rather good! It is made of titanium - which is light and strong and it can accept a very wide range of ink cartridges. If you like pens - you will appreciate this pen.

Here are some pictures of the pen and its internals, that show (basically) how it works.

Here is a simple DIY planner for 2024: 2024-DIY-Planner.pdf

If you have access to a printer that can print on both sides of a piece of paper, you can print yourself a letter sized 2024 planner using this file. You can then hole punch the pages and put the planner in a binder.

To create this, I used an awk program to write PostScript for the main planner and ps2pdf to convert the PostScript into a PDF. The initial calendar pages came from a combination of another awk program and the cal program.

And here is a shorter pdf which provides monthly spreads for 2024 planning, again for printing out double sided and hole punching to put in a binder: 2024-Monthly-Planner.pdf
