type out all of my journals
I have so many.

They are all from the last five and a half years of my life. I would say I have probably twenty or more full, handwritten journals/notebooks. I would like to type tham out and keep the entries organized chronologically on my computer, neat and tidy, seperated in folders according to month and year. It’s just so much typing, and seems like endless work. I need to force myself to just start. It will be so fulfilling to achieve this goal…I’ve been putting it off for a couple of years, and the journals just keep on accumulating.

That's a good idea...

Actually, I’ve been trying to do that (blogging helps, as well), but I often find myself away from my computer, with things I need to get down, so I end up writing in a notebook. Plus, sometimes I am able to journal better when I lay in bed with a notebook and pen than when I type…puts me in a different mood, more introspective, etc.

Wow!

Seems like quite a task…but you can do it if you really want to organize all your journals…I don’t really keep journals so I don’t understand the whole concept. However, isn’t it better to have you work in its original place such as yours are in your journals? Doesn’t writing style also say alot about what you were feeling at the time of the entry?? I don’t know…just a suggestion…but if it’s better for you to organize it on your computer than, GO FOR IT!!

Journalllss!!

I like keeping my online blogs and handwritten ones seperate. I like keeping things in my journals alone because I write in a certain style. Different line values and boldnesses and such.

Maybe for interesting letters or words or margins you could scan the page and include it with the typed entry.
