Tried a new pen for my weekly spread and it bled through the page
I picked up a new gel pen from the store last Friday, a 0.5mm one that was on sale. I was excited to use it for my new weekly layout in my Leuchtturm notebook. I started outlining my boxes and the ink looked great, really dark and smooth. But when I flipped the page, I saw the ghosting was way worse than with my usual pens, and in a couple spots it actually bled through. I was pretty bummed because I had to redo the whole spread on the next page. I learned that not every pen works with every notebook paper, even if it says it's for writing. Now I always do a quick test in the back of my journal first. Has anyone else had a pen they loved that just didn't work with their bujo?

Ugh, that's the WORST. I had a marker that bled through and ruined a whole month's habit tracker.

Tell me about it, I once ruined a whole month's title page with a pen that bled like a stuck pig.
