I absolutely LOVE my Writers Kit but unfortunately, the student kit wasn't as user friendly for me and adaptable as I thought it would be so I ended up giving them away. But, again, I do love the ones I purchased from the writer's kit. This particular version just isn't for me.

Ruled Note
Don't be last
With our new season launch, our little Aussie studio is currently experiencing extremely high demand. Batch quantities are limited so first come, first served.
I'm the plainest thing here, and the one you'll reach for most.
My job is to get out of the way. Lines, a page, and room for whatever needs saying. Meetings, brain dumps, lists, the diary you keep meaning to keep.
I want you to stop thinking about the notebook and write the thing down.

I love the Fast Brain Planners - and I love the magnetic marker. I will be order this for my daughter in law - who also has a fast brain!
Angela C. 5/5 Verified
Running List is what started it all for me! It has truly changed the way my brain is able to organize and prioritize. It was the gateway drug to my full Fast Brain system use for sure!
Alexandra R. 5/5 Verified
Product quality is next level, I am so impressed by it. I have been surprised by how versatile the fast brain friend is, working well with different daily priorities.

PERFECT!

Haven't used them yet but i think they'll look god with the folio and like that I have the option to add more journals with them.
Gina C. 4/5 Verified
Goes perfectly with my folio!
Gina C. 5/5 Verified
After writing my first book I've been looking for a good way to track characters and plot stories. The problem is that i prefer to write my stories by hand and wanted a physical journal to track everything. Your journal not only does that but allows for full world building as well. I can't wait to start plotting my next series with it and will absolutely buy similar journals you may have in the future.

The leather is so soft, yet still sturdy. And set up was so easy between the written instructions sent and the additional pictures on the website.
Gina C. 5/5 Verified
I love the physical products! Great quality. I'm just new to this style of planning and I'm not quite sure where to start.
Cora S. 4/5 Verified
I love my notebooks, but one of the highlighters was dried out, and my name was not embossed like it was supposed to be. Would still order from this company again because I love the product so much even with those things going wrong.

I never received any pencils. 🙁 I was disappointed. The rest of the order was fine.

Great look and feel. I’ve only started to use it, but it’s already been helpful in merging work and life and keeping me on track.
Leslie M. 5/5 Verified
It was super simple and I love my stuff!
Sawyer J. 5/5 Verified
The cover colors are gorgeous. Page layouts are wonderfully flexible and fight boredom. I’ve already changed the way I’m using the pages twice while using my first month’s planner and feel zero guilt about it!

Okay, so honestly, i was REALLY excited to get this. I researched a couple other brands with similar items and decided to go with this one… It took what felt like forever to ship (it was about 3 weeks, not including shipping time to the US) and i did not get any customization on my item. I’m not super stoked about the notebooks that came with it, tbh. I don’t really understand why there are two of the same Fast Brain friends instead of each being different notebooks. Anyway, I got my folio all set up and ready to use and started flipping through the “friends” and they’re not the most easy to understand. Maybe this is just a me thing? I purchased Rituals friend along with this set and it’s by far my least favorite. The Running List friend is nice and somewhat helpful, I’ve used maybe 3-5 pages in the Future Planner friend, but honestly there’s a “list maker” next to each monthly calendar view that seems redundant when i already have the running list friend. it’s nice if you want a quick monthly view, but tbh i’ll probably use my phone’s calendar way more than this. I wish there were sample pages posted of each friend’s listing, because I definitely would have known some of these were not for me. Oh also, don’t write on the front covers with pen. IT WILL SMUDGE. Even if you think you’ve waited long enough 😭 Overall, the quality of the folio is nice and once I run out of pages in these friends, I’ll probably just buy blank notebooks to put in it.

i swapped out my original bands for these & it looks so cute! plus now with the extra band. my book holds 6 “friends” (notebooks) plus a folder and a zipper pouch, so 8 things total!

I bought a kit for a family member who is likewise spicy brained and he is finding it a fun way to get organised.

The personalize folio looks great, I cannot wait to give it to my friend!

Love the fact that each day's layout is different.
Madison M. 5/5 Verified
Big fan of the Fast Brain planners! I love the varied daily spreads that I can choose based on my mood and how productive (or distracted) I'm feeling that day. The habit tracking at the top of every page is also super useful for an at-a-glance view of whether I'm sticking to my goals or not. Unfortunately my shipping experience with Creator's Friend was not as positive, as their site states 5-7 business days for shipping and I waited 20 days. I was only sent a shipping notification after I emailed them to follow up, and received no other communication from their team to let me know why my order had been delayed. That aside, I'd absolutely recommend these planners to other people who struggle with traditional diaries and are looking for something that actually works with their brain.

Ordered a custom folio and I could not have been happier!! I bring mine with me daily and its been helpful in reminding myself to journal atleast once a day. I have four notebooks in it right now that each have its own purpose. Its definitely its own ecosystem now that helps me stay organized
Clarisse A. 5/5 Verified
I still have not received it. I am waiting and waiting and waiting. I did get complementary replacements, but no one told me that’s what it was so I was confused why I didn’t get the right thing. I’ve been told since, but still haven’t received this. I hope to get it soon. Otherwise I’d like a refund!

Bit busy, especially as its targeted at adhd or fast brains.

Fits perfectly in the leather sleeve and is exactly what it says- ruled notebook. It was presented beautifully and I look forward to keeping treasured memories in it.

The folio is a lovely color and a really generous size. I have three notebooks in it now, and I could absolutely fit more. The texture is pleasant and the bag does a great job of protecting the folio from scuffs and stains.
Cj M. 5/5 Verified
It's a nice concept, but really not usable for me. It's too complicated, too much page flipping for my ADHD brain. I need the stability of having everything in one place. I had high hopes so I ordered 12 plus the folio. Frustrating :(

Love them! Setting my intentions for the day and keeping them which makes me feel wonderful!
