Have you all seen the new 2015/2016 planners?!  They have a new horizontal layout.  On the old vertical layout, they left the square headings blank, so we aren't stuck with morning/day/night headings.  I'm super excited!

Ooh! I like this so much better! I had convinced myself that I didn't need to order a new one, but now I might have to.

[steph96]

I was so excited that I forgot to add my question. My current planner is July 2014-December 2015. Will they be releasing a January 2016-July 2017 one at the end of the year? I wish they would just do a January to December planner like normal people do.

The vertical layout is why I like EC so I will be sticking with that.

I hate that they added the thankful thoughts section. I actually used that calendar that was there. Because....you know....its a PLANNER.

Typically its July 2015 to Dec 2016 or Jan 2016 to Dec 2016

Oh for fuck's sake.

I'm glad all of the preview stuff is video based, because I have no tolerance for videos but I know that finding out more about the other new features would raise my blood pressure

Not all video based. There is a look book. 10 pages for each layout; )

I wish she made smaller ones. I love the look of them but I need a 5 x 8ish size

And thinner!  I had one last year but it was just too bulky.  But I also realized I'm just not a super planner.  I like having a paper planner but I never used the EC planner the way it was really designed to be used.

I am a big list maker so I like the size and am used to the bulk.  It stays at work most the time during the week so I am not really lugging it anywhere.

I am going back o the 12 month though.  The 18 month is a bit more than I need in one book.

[brooke77]

I wish she made smaller ones too! I can only carry mine in my work tote. I love it and use it for everything (work stuff, running stuff, travel stuff) but it is a pain that I can't fit it into my regular purse...

I don't care for the new layout.

I didnt realize they took that small calendar away. That's dumb!

I'll stick with my plum paper planner. It feels more functional to me.

[konapoppy]

I really want one of these, but I know I will use it for like 2 weeks and then forget about it. So pretty.

Personal-planner.com has a very similar planner to EC at half the price ... I love my 6x6 planner from them !

I had one of these a few years ago and it was super nice.  It held up really well.  These days I need more space and the extra note pages at the back.

Can you measure the space for the weekends? One major selling point on the EC planner is that the weekend space is huge.

Oh wow! I like those! How big is the daily space? I'd want the vertical design.

I was trying to decide whether I really wanted one back when the fever first began, but I was too cheap, so I went to Target and bought a pretty planner instead and that's exactly what happened.  Do a trial run!

It's the same size as an EC. Here is a pic of my week. My hand writing is large and atrocious.

If my diaries as a kid and calendars outside of school are any indication, this will not go over well lol. But target might quench the pretty need!

its small on my 6x6 but I can only assume the next size up would have more space - also you can configure the setup of your week any way you want to

That's exactly what happens to me. I think I'll just back out of this thread.

[nomad100]

I will say that I tried to DIY something for myself last year and was great about using it until I needed to print the next 6 months of pages and ran out of ink in the middle of the process.

I am going to break down and get one of these this year since I know if I have it I will use it. Even if the stupid Thoughtful thoughts crap took the place of an actual calendar.

[StJess80]

Personal-planner.com has an option for coloring pages at the back! I should have followed my own advice and stayed away!

[cjeanette]

Am I weird that I can't order all these other planners because I don't like the coil?

[StJess80]

I was in an EC FB group that would uncoil theirs. I have no idea how...but it seems to be a thing, so I don't think you are weird.

I have seen many a You Tube video on that.  It stresses me out..lol.  What if you ruin it???

I definitely would ruin it. Isn't there some crafty tool that you need in order to do it? I think once you put it back, you have to use O rings or something else. I would either ruin it, or get bored and never come back to it.
