About Ron
Hi, I’m Ron Stempmkowski—writer, planner, storyteller, Certified Journal Therapy Coach, and unapologetic paper nerd. I believe every life is a story worth telling, and sometimes the best way to tell it is with ink on paper.

I founded Twisted Plot Paper because I see people tucking their dreams into the corners of sticky notes, apps, or “someday.” Life deserves better. Life deserves center stage. That’s why I create journals and planners that don’t just organize your to-do list, but actually light up your creativity, spark healing, and remind you that you’re the main character in your own script.
As a Certified Journal Therapist, I’ve seen how powerful journaling can be—not just for staying on track, but for finding clarity, easing anxiety, and discovering the plot twists you never saw coming. My approach blends evidence-based therapeutic practices with playful design, so the page feels less like homework and more like possibility.
When I’m not sketching out a new product idea or scribbling in my own journal, you’ll probably find me with a fountain pen in one hand, coffee in the other, and my golden retriever, Hudson, at my feet. (Hudson’s still waiting for his own planner. Someday.)
Through The Starring Me! Journal, The Possible, The Write Track Planner, and the products still waiting in the wings, I’m on a mission to help people write, plan, and imagine their lives in ways that feel fun, fearless, and deeply personal.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about filling pages—it’s about filling your life with stories worth remembering.
Pens at the ready? Let’s write something unforgettable.
