Here’s a classic by Molly from ’06:
I can’t write straight without lines, and there are the times I need
to. Especially when I am using a dip pen and shellac based ink. So I
printed a card with lines that can be seen thru the moleskine journal
page and keep it in the back, along with the blotter paper card.

You can still download these writing templates from Rod Graves’ site:

I used them for a time but they got a little cumbersome for me. Still a great idea.
Good find! I’ve also been leaning towards finding one myself.
I’ve seen something similar in Japan. They use shitajiki – pencil boards to prevent indentations being made onto the other pages behind the one you’re writing on.
Some have the lines while most have characters/mascots. Generally in plastic and usually in bigger sizes. Anyone else seen these? Know if they make them in a size suitable for moleskines?
I print out a 1/4″ graph template on cardstock to use in my plain pocket Moleskine. The back side doubles as a blotter since I use a fountain pen to write in my journal/idea book.
