SHOP FAVORITES“Never forget that writing is as close as we get to keeping a hold on the thousand and one things — childhood, certainties, cities, doubts, dreams, instants, phrases, parents, loves — that go on slipping, like sand, through our fingers.”
- Salman Rushdie
The very first journal we made was inspired by our founder’s love of the sea. Ever since then, we’ve let our customers steer the ship — asking what designs you’d love to see next.
We rely on your design inspiration to create beautiful, practical, refillable journals that support your everyday writing practice.
❤ Why beautiful? Because the objects you use most should feel meaningful and special. They should bring joy to your heart when you look at them. They should tell a story — so you can tell yours.
❤ Why practical? Because you don’t need built-in pens, ties, or locks to sit down and write. In fact, those things usually just get in the way when you’re racing to capture your next great idea. Instead, our journals are simple and elegant. Just open and write.
❤ Why refillable? Because your story continues.
All SohoSpark journals are bound in vegan leather(also known as pure synthetic leather, polyurethane leather/PU, or faux leather). We choose not to use animal products in our journals because, well, there’s just no need to. Faux leather offers the same silky, luxurious feel and lasting durability as cowhide — plus, it’s scuff- and water-resistant. Find out more about vegan leather here.
"I write entirely to find out what I'm thinking, what I'm looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear."
- Joan Didion
We know how important it is to carry the right journal: one that invites you to sit and fill it. If you aren’t 100% happy with your SohoSpark journal, we’ll gladly refund your full purchase price or help you exchange it for one you love.
I just received the sunrise, new day (my description) journal which I’m giving to my sister for Christmas. (I shop early). The box it came in was sturdy and very nice quality and the journal inside, wrapped in a thick tissue paper. I gently slid the book out to get a good look at it and was very impressed with the quality of the leather cover and book/journal itself. This is not a typical blank journal with a nice cover, this is a work of art.
I ordered this journal to chronical/log our camping excursions. I couldn't be happier. My husband loves it as well. Sturdy and beautiful !
I am in love with these journals! I ordered two of them and both are absolutely beautiful. They arrive in their own, very nice box, where they can be stored if you like. I enjoy sitting mine on the beside table. With the holidays coming up, these would make GREAT gifts for anyone.
Wow! I received this as a gift for my 31st birthday, and when I unwrapped it I was speechless! The beautiful horse, the delicate way it was placed in the faux leather, and the faux leather itself all brought me so much joy! THANK YOU!
I’m loving my new journal cover and inserts. I’ve been journaling for over 25 years and I have slowly developed a “system.” This beautiful cover and inserts are my new, awesome upgrade and I love it! The quality is great, the company is lovely to work with. I had a question about my order and a very nice person got back to me right away. I’m sticking with this company from now on for my journal needs.
This is the best journal I've ever used, and now the only one. This is the 4th one I've purchased. They are great gifts! I love the leather feel of the cover. It's just the right size to throw in my purse. The paper is heavy enough to use fountain pen, highlighters, or other art media with no bleed-through. Soho is the way to go!
I keep coming back to sohospark not only for the fast delivery but for the great quality of the products and also the fantastic prices, thank you
Writing in my journal is an important part of my life. The Compass Rose journal I recently purchased is more beautiful than I expected. The quality is superb, and I am very pleased to have a vegan "leather" cover that cedes nothing to fine leather. From a personal, ethical standpoint, I prefer the SoHo Spark choice, but even if that were not the case, this is beautifully made. The paper is terrific. I love that I can replace a completed journal with a refill. The thought that goes into these journals is exceptional. I had already purchased a SoHo Spark journal with a heavy paperboard cover; I love it, as well. But this one is to be treasured. I highly recommend one of these faux leather journals as a gift for someone you love – and for yourself.
This is my second leather journal from SohoSpark. I love the quality and design of the covers and the lined pages for writing. The Celtic Cross design is perfect for keeping my written devotions. Thank you SohoSpark for such beautiful quality!
I recently purchased my Compass Journal and love the look of the faux leather cover and engraving. It has been some years since I last wrote anything in a journal but I am looking forward to beginning writing again. I love the size and page layout and know this will be a valuable piece of my life.
I got my journal sooner than expected. It comes pleasantly packaged and with 2 attachable pen holders that stick inside. The paper and binding seem to be strong and durable. It's the perfect size for traveling and fits well into my usual travel bag.
Great experience in purchasing. I received immediate correspondence when there was the possibility of my purchase not being received when expected. I received a refund for the priority shipping I paid. I still received my order before the time I was hoping to have it and it's beautiful. Exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you for such a great experience.
This journal is so lovely! Happily they did not skimp on the leather; it is rich and soft. So glad I found it!

"I love the look, feel, quality and size of this journal! This journal is made well. It encompasses high quality workmanship for a great price.The leather looks smooth and shiny, the embossing looks great and the stitching looks perfect. The lined pages are a good quality paper and is a good size with 240 pages... It can fit very easily into my purse or briefcase to take with me when I am on the go. I have looked for different journals over the years and this has been my favorite so far... by far.”

The only thing better than gifting a gorgeous journal? Giving your special someone their choice of cover art. May we present (wink, wink): gift cards!
I’m the founder of SohoSpark (you know, the journal store whose website you’re reading right now). Thanks for being here. I hope you’ll take a few minutes to look around.
I created this company because I believe in the power of personal writing.
Personal writing journals have been part of my story for decades. One recorded my walk with God while I was in school. Another captured a screenplay. And still another recorded the formation of SohoSpark, and my dreams for how this brand would touch the lives of others.
Writing releases powerful emotions and helps you settle into a calm, peaceful state of mind. It allows you to re-frame and understand your own experiences. It creates a record of your life and your ideas that you can look back on, or pass on to future generations.
Through the written word, you can send your mind on new, positive, and challenging adventures. And where your mind goes, your life will likely follow.
Write on,
Michael Wilkes
You already know this: being kind to others makes you happy. And, actually, it's a proven fact that kindness makes you feel happy and feeling happy makes you kinder.
Tracking kindness is a terrific way to keep kindness on our radar and incorporate more of it into our lives. Just as a gratitude makes us more attuned to the things that we’re grateful for, a kindness journal or tracker makes us more aware of those moments of grace. And, especially if we have a goal of recording one (or more) acts of kindness daily, we’ll be more apt to take action.
C'mon. Do it. Who would turn down happiness?
