Wrist pain while Journaling

I recently saw a post that I think was in r/Journaling about experiencing pain while writing. In the post the redditor remarked about how the edge of their notebook was causing discomfort. I never got around to commenting on the post and cannot find it now so I am just going to do a general post.

I recently started a new lay flat notebook. At the moment the right page is about 2cm above the desktop. Without support my wrist and forearm can press against the edge of the notebook while I write and it quickly becomes uncomfortable. I place a combination of notebooks and regular books around the edge of the area my arm will lay to support my arm and keep it level (see image 2 & 3). By keeping my arm level with the writing surface I can write pain free
