One of the beneficial side effects of writing a lot is having an excuse to buy lots of notebooks and paper. I have a big stack -- all patiently waiting in my closet. But I will get to all of them eventually.
Some of my favorites:
1. Soft-covered notebooks from Apica. They come in a variety of colors, from moss green to bright red. The paper is smooth and fountain pen friendly. They are a little hard to find. There is a seller on eBay who carries them and I have also bought them at Kinokuniya in Los Angeles and Seattle.
2. The new brightly colored thin notebooks from Moleskine I am currently using a hot pink one. The thinner size makes it easy to put in my purse. Also, the paper quality seems much better than that in the "normal" black Moleskines.
3. Marbled Venetian hard cover notebooks from La Ricerca. A bit expensive and of course you need to be in Venice to buy them.
4. Quad pads from Rhodia. These are available at tons of stores and online sources now.
