There is a lot of research on this. I think there is something like more than 1,200 studies, and they all confirm the same basic result, which is writing stuff down about your emotions makes you physically healthier.

Well, I guess if I've had one big idea in my life, it's to suddenly notice notebooks. And once you start noticing them, you notice them absolutely everywhere.

And I suppose just thinking about the role, the different parts they play in all of our lives and the parts they've played in our lives through history and the changes that they've made to our lives, I guess that's what got me really into them.

The first something like a notebook that we know of is from about the year 1300 BC. So that's coming up for 3,500 years old. They found it in a shipwreck off the south coast of Turkey. It's called the Uluburun shipwreck. And it's pretty well preserved considering how old it is. You can see it in a museum in Bodrum in Turkey. And that was very much a working notebook.

It probably belonged to a merchant or some kind of sailor, ship's captain, something like that, and was probably to do with business. And the first notebooks nearly always are to do with business.

It has to be paper. That's the only real definition I have. So an electronic thing doesn't really count as a notebook for me, although you can do lots of the same things. Historically, parchment and papyrus things and wax tablets aren't quite the same. You can't do as much with them as you can do with paper. So I think notebooks can be really huge.

I think they can be like massive business ledgers. I think they can be absolutely tiny, like the smallest little date books. But if they're made of paper and they've got blank pages, then I call them a notebook.
