Keri Smith’s Non-Planner Datebook on Recycled Paper

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

I’ve been a bit fan of Keri Smith’s blog and books for a long time and I am thrilled I can feature her here. Her new datebook is called the “Non-planner Datebook”. It is described as helping to simultaneously look towards the future and be in the present moment. A spirit that is always challenging, but always worth pursuing. So you can throw out where you want your life to go but you can gently skip in circles to get there, enjoying the scenery along the way. (sounds like one of my morning walks!) Best part: printed in Oakland, CA on 100% post-consumer recycled paper with soy-based inks by Little Otsu.
$16.00 at Little Otsu (the best little eco-friendly printer there is in the whole wide world)
