    Look at the ENGLISH planners.

    Then check out the "Original" covers, not the "English" covers. There are cheaper options, and they appear to be the same size as the expensive English covers.

    I ended up with a Japanese journal book and a leather snap cover from the same Japanese section. The journal is in Japanese, but that's probably okay since I do NOT plan on using it as a journal - I will be ignoring the dates. I will miss the quotes, since I don't read Japanese. But I'll have a nice tomoe river paper journal. That was kinda the point. I also threw in a perforated notebook and a stencil (not included in my $106 price). Not sure if the notebook will also fit inside the cover with the journal, or what paper exactly it contains, but it was inexpensive so I took my chances.

    What has anyone else ordered?

    I am guessing Dave's Seven Seas Writer is too large for your needs (A5)?
    And Jay's Paperforfountainpens blank bound books are also not quite what you need?

    There are tons of cheap options including some very cheap silicone. And once you buy a cover you never need buy a other unless you want to... I just got a new cover (fired of blue) and planner for about $40 before shipping.

    Good suggestions! I have been looking at the Seven Seas Writer, but the PaperForFountainPens books are new to me. Maybe it's time to give them a try!

    I use them for diffrient needs so not sure which fits your need better

    I think it maybe worth it for you to try a factory seconds writer from Dave if lined paper is what you use most.

    Just a thought, hopefully helpful
    TR paper is not as rare as it was before :-)
