A digital commonplace book. Private by default, free forever. A quiet shelf for the words worth keeping.https://bsky.app/profile/locuscommunis.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/locuscommunis.com/post/3mx5pdvk2zm2jEach day your book hands back a few passages you kept long ago. Write beside one and that note becomes today's journal entry. #journaling #commonplacebook #readingjournal #booksky05 Oct 2026 20:00 +0000at://did:plc:6h4cd6rhlppf4keax5surqtu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mx5pdvk2zm2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/locuscommunis.com/post/3mx5dmfah4e2uOn the workbench: a better Hardcover sync. Status, ratings and reading dates kept in step in both directions, so the shelf you keep there and the commonplace book you keep here agree without you thinking about it. #buildinpublic #books #reading #booksky05 Oct 2026 16:30 +0000at://did:plc:6h4cd6rhlppf4keax5surqtu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mx5dmfah4e2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/locuscommunis.com/post/3mx4x23mzwn2a"The beginning is the end."

Read for a year and you've kept a diary of your reading without sitting down to write one. #journaling #commonplacebook #readingjournal #booksky04 Oct 2026 16:30 +0000at://did:plc:6h4cd6rhlppf4keax5surqtu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mx2t5hrsam2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/locuscommunis.com/post/3mx2gl624ha2h"Always having what we want may not be the best good fortune.

An ISBN behind each title, so a book here can point to the same book elsewhere. #buildinpublic #books #reading #booksky04 Oct 2026 01:45 +0000at://did:plc:6h4cd6rhlppf4keax5surqtu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwzboxnsxf2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/locuscommunis.com/post/3mwz66h7dez2yA good way to end the week: open your journal to today's page and write one line beside a passage you kept. Future you will be glad of the date on it. #journaling #commonplacebook #readingjournal #booksky04 Oct 2026 00:42 +0000at://did:plc:6h4cd6rhlppf4keax5surqtu/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwz66h7dez2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/locuscommunis.com/post/3mwxw4aiow22s"Without the sun, what day?
