Why do you prefer typing and printing your grimoire entries?

Typing and printing out my grimoire entries allows for easy editing and customization. It also prevents me from feeling hesitant to write in a physical notebook, as I can always make changes and adjustments later.

Artwork and poetry are sources of inspiration for me. Including them in my grimoire not only adds visual appeal but also enhances my connection to magic and serves as a reminder of the beauty and creativity within witchcraft.

How do you organize your grimoire?
