Just realized my old sketchbook sparks more creativity than any app.

I was sorting through old boxes and came across my design sketches from years ago. The imperfect lines and quick ideas in there feel more inspiring to me now than all the sleek digital portfolios I see online. Has anyone else gone back to physical tools for fresh ideas?

Didn't a study say handwriting uses different brain parts than typing?

Lol yeah 100%. I was cleaning out my closet last week and found these notebooks from college with all these coffee stains and rushed handwriting. The smudges and weird energy in them just hits different than anything I do on a screen now, it's all too clean and perfect. Flipping through that messy physical stuff actually got me sketching again.
