Journaling with Sterling Ink Layouts | Imagining Myself as a Seattle Pianist & Author

✨Like and subscribe✨ if you enjoyed this video. June brings a return to something familiar. This month's persona lives in Seattle, writes fiction, and plays piano at a level that earns her some income without defining her entirely — small ceremonies, local award shows, a book that keeps growing into the next one. The Mystical Water sticker collection from Sterling Ink felt like the right container for it: flowing, a little hard to orient, somewhere between fabric and music on a page. I ended up laying everything out differently this month, writing more than I have in any previous spread, and letting go of the strip stickers as event markers I'd leaned on so heavily before. It changed the whole feel. This is part of my Facets series, where I use one 2024 Sterling Ink sticker kit per month in a 2025 A5 Sterling Ink planner, giving each month to a different version of myself I once considered or dreamed about. Six months in, halfway there.

I am neurodivergent and planning around chronic illnesses, so I write in erasable pen and leave things very flexible. I also misspeak and misspell a lot due to auditory processing, dyslexia and lose my train of thought due to ADHD while my autism keeps me organized, hyper focused and hyper vigilant. You do the best that you can with what you have, and that's ok.
