Some stories are over when the credits roll. Others give you quite a bit more to think about.
That’s where Storylines Friend comes in.
A place to log and review the books, films, TV and audio that have kept your attention. Keep track of themes, symbolism, favourite quotes and all those thoughts and observations you’re not quite ready to let go of.
Because a good story tends to stay with you.

NO ORDINARY FRIEND
YOURS
These are notebooks designed around you
The glaze that came out right. The row count. The trail head. The seedling that made it. You always think you'll remember, and you never do — so the next one starts from guesswork instead of from what you already learnt.
Every Hobby Note is built around the things that one hobby actually asks you to keep track of. Pottery Friend logs make, trim, bisque, glaze and fire because that's the shape of the process. Gardening Friend runs seed to harvest. Not a blank page you have to design first.

This is such a fun one! I am working on a degree in environmental science and wildlife biology, so I spend a lot of time outdoors recording stuff like this anyway. I have not seen any other websites have something like this in their line up of the hobby journals so what an awesome find. Thanks for making cool hobby options!
I love the color! I have so many notebooks already and it fits them all great. It’s very good quality too! I had to wait what felt like forever for it to get here (no fault of creator’s friend team) since for me it had to ship to the U.S. so just keep that in mind. Worth the wait though :)
I was nervous when I heard that my beloved Fast Brain friends were being revamped but holy cow are these magnificent! 13/10 stars
The new FBF are absolutely amazing. I can’t wait to start using them. The great designs and the information down the bottom of each page is fantastic.
I love this books layout. And now that it has even more pages is awesome 👌 👏. This is, hands down, my go to for keeping up with my book reviews.
Nice design
Exactly as promised!
This is perfect dont ever change.
This notebook is perfect. Dont ever change.
This is great for tracking plants and progress. Wish there was a couple of blank pages to plan out the garden layout.
Absolutely gorgeous. Love everything I ordered. Packaged with care and arrived in perfect condition.
This is for a gift. I did look through it and to me it makes perfect sense.
Disappointed with the slow delivery. Previous order was delayed and there was a lack of response to my queries.
Beautiful! Exactly what i was looking for!
Loving my future planner! It’s helping me keep track of my appointments and make sure I don’t double book myself! I would love more free use pages instead of things like password trackers, but otherwise it’s fantastic!
Beautiful colours perfect layout fantastic order enjoying using the notebooks in my folio
As a newcomer to the world of the Fast Brain planner, I LOVE the recommendations/ideas for how to use the different layouts. Such a great addition.
Great customer service!
Sooooo...the books for the cost, left much to be desired. The quality of cover and paper is bit underwhelming and coming from Traveler's planners, I am used to a bit more refined experience. With the costs being comparable, disappointment is an understatement. Functionality, I can't say that this really supports my focus, goal settings, task delegation. Each day is different, which is cool...but what happens when 2-3 of the daily formats simply don't work for you. I've done this for a month. Unfortunately, I am already shopping for a new planner. Worst, to give this a full chance, means you're likely bumping up against or past the return window. Not sure what to do with 11 months of planners and a folio that is designed to fit these books. Le'sigh.
The folio seems a bit backwards and loose. Sliding the books in the using the instructions left my books focusing on right to left functionality. Once that was more or less settled, three notebooks in the folio still leaves too much room, making for shifting and unstable books. It's simply not as tight as I would expect or want.
Beautiful notebooks. I am a counsellor and the Fast Brain Notebooks have been lovely to hand to clients I'm working with ADHD. They are very much appreciated.
Great layout that is flexible and easily personalised. A great way of planning my whole week so I can see it at once. The paper is a really good quality and I haven’t had any ink bleed through. I’m not sure about the new checklist pages at the back, they could have got a few more planner pages in there. I’ve been using this weekly planner for over and year and will continue to use them, they help me keep track of my life.
I’ve put two of your notebooks in it along with an A5 hard cover notebook and it all looks perfectly fine. Leather was right colour as ordered and very smooth. I look forward to many years of using them.
Maybe I didn't read all the print properly and got excited about the colour but I thought the folio would be leather and feel substantial like leather does. This didn't do it for me as I hate the smell of anything artificial.
Refillable Folio in Salty Plum
Store owner replied: Thank you Shelly, while our folios are made from vegan leather, we understand this may not be suited for you and wish for you to love you new order. Please follow our return policy via our website if you wish to have this returned xx
Really like the new planners
The Salty Plum is as gorgeous in person as it is in the pictures. No wonder you run out of it. The cover is very soft and the stitching around the edges gives it a professional and complete look. Even though its journey was long, it was worth the wait. I am enjoying my new journal and am very pleased with my choice. Thank you!
The quality of the folio was not quality material and the color did not look like the photos. It all felt cheaply made. I was disappointed that I spent that much money and time waiting for this item
Refillable Folio in Saddle Brown
Store owner replied: Hi Jenna, we wish for you to love your new order and understand if your folio is not right for you. If you do wish to return this please follow our return policy via our website. Thank you x
Love the new Fast Brain Friend, have decided to alternate between old and new to keep it interesting. One thing I love is the word should has been removed from all the pages, it always made me feel guilty. Plus I cover the instructions once I have read them to make the pages for me more attractive. But 10 out of 10 for the new design.
How flippin gorgeous is the new packaging and look at those colours! 😍
Fast Brain Friend - Complete Gift Set
Store owner replied: Aww thank you for sharing! We hope you love your new set xx
Love the journal cover, a bit more of a blue pink than I was expecting but it’s soft leather and works absolutely perfectly with my large moleskine note books (6 of them!)
I love the blush colour - so pretty and fresh! I just wish it was possible to get filofax organiser holes drilled in it. My attempts with the drill are nasty! This is my second 26 week book, and it has been so very useful to my organisation. Thank you.
Love everything except that the lines are a bit small for my writing. Love the layout .
Beautifully made & crafted ❤️ Love all the different designs and books in a book!
I didn't get the spring planner. I got runners. Complained with photos and got same thing.
Beautiful quality and a joy to use.
This weekly planner is just what I was looking for. Thin and light to carry around. A minimal schedule and lot of space for tasks and a little bit of notes. I didn’t expect to use the meal tracker/planner but that’s been useful too.
I’m using it
Quality of items is stellar, and customer service was amazing!
Very nice quality and it's very soft to the touch. Exactly what I wanted! The customer service is also top tier - they were nice enough to give me a partial refund of an order that was stolen. I would love it if they extended the list of countries they ship to so that I can buy more stuff and have them delivered here.
Perfection. I wish there was a magnetic way to keep them with my notebooks.
