This magazine has been in my head for a long time. I wanted to create a place for people who love, like me, all the planners, journals, books, writing, stickers, postcards, shops, ideas, and all the wonderfully creative things that happen when those worlds overlap.
Not just the products. The people behind them. The PLANNER PEOPLE. The JOURNALERS. The READERS. The WRITERS. The MAKERS. The CREATIVES. The people who still get excited about a fresh notebook, a new pen, a stack of books, a beautiful planner, or an idea they can’t wait to put on paper.
That’s what BINDER is about.
Here on Substack, we’ll share stories, interviews, our favorite finds, conversations, behind-the-scenes looks at the magazine, and there will be plenty of opportunities for you to tell me what you’re loving, using, reading, planning, and creating.
BINDER is an independent magazine, but I don’t want it to feel like something created at you. I want it to feel like something we’re building together. So, if you’re here early, thank you. Truly. You’re helping shape what BINDER becomes. I want you to be part of it. I want you to be in it.
And before I let you go, please take a moment to answer our short Reader Survey and tell me what you’d love to see here.
Welcome to BINDER! I can’t wait to meet you.
Kathryn (Kath), the “I’m so excited” Editor behind BINDER Magazine
