III I was always pretty lazy at analysing my chess games since I was a kid. Luckily I noticed chess notation fits perfectly into novel notes pages so have started gluing them in and analysing each game after. Finally somewhere for all my scraps to go, have a bit of a backlog to get through... but its nice to do I do like the new thick gsm pages and binding, very solid and nice to touch. Any other fellow chess players using novel notes this way? Hit me up!
