Pens, pencils, markers, highlighters, and stamping ink work great in The Chronicle Diary. However, some alcohol ink-based markers (such as Prismacolor and Copic) and Sharpies can bleed through pages. If you are unsure if your pens/markers will bleed through the page, please test them before use.

Consent Checklist
Consent checklists are becoming an important part of gaming for many players and storytellers. Various game companies and storytellers have created consent checklists for storytellers and players to use in their games. It can be a very useful tool to help avoid conflicts and players wanting to leave a game due to the content.
Playing with Proofs
I’ve been playing with some of the proof copies, testing various pens, markers, stamp inks, etc. Its been a lot of fun to experiment with various things and get input from my partner and our roommate on potential improvements. After some testing, I’ve found that Sharpies and alcohol ink brush pens (like Prismacolor or Copic) will bleed through to the opposite page, but most other pens, highlighters, and stamp inks have been fine.
Creating the Chronicle Diary
Like a lot of other Millennials, I’ve dabbled in playing TTRPGs. Dungeons and Dragons is of course the most popular of these, but other systems like Pathfinder, Shadowrun, World of Darkness, and many others exist.
