Kinealy is looking forward to getting started on her list!

Day One 1 week ago

Pulled out an old leather bound journal I had been saving for just such a day. One day in, one entry down. So far, so good!

Step One 4 weeks ago

I purchased the prettiest dark red leather notebook at Chapters today. Haven’t written in it yet, let’s see how it goes.



Bought a cute pinup journal. 1 month ago

Now for the hard part. I gotta remember to write in it daily, even if it’s only a sentence.
It’ll be nice to actually write about myself, instead of the character profiles, plot ideas, and outlines I’ve been preparing for NaNoWriMo. Hopefully, journalling will get me out of my head a little more before I burn myself out without making it to November, heh.



Untitled 2 months ago

I’ve just read someone elses tips on how they did it, I’m going to also write 5 positive things that happened in my day, plus 5 things I’m grateful for, what a great idea!!



Going well 2 months ago

I’ve started and it’s really great to write all my thoughts and feelings down and reflect on the day. Some days I write one sentence, other days I write an essay, it’s lovely to capture a magical moment in my journal. It really helps to see what makes me take and where I can improve myself.

be more creative, explore what's inside 3 months ago

I have problems remembering a lot of things because I have to much going on in my mind. I want to start journaling to keep track of my life, important moments and thoughts. I want to stir my creative juices! I recently purchased some books that are supposed to help me out with this endeavor. Ultimately I want to be able to share pieces of my life with others.



A Great place to keep a Journal and a I found a load of other interesting stuff. 3 months ago

I have just started an online journal on this site I found which is great I can now keep a permanent record of what I do – I lost my paper journal :( This site also has some other stuff like a book feature where I can write a book which I never really thought of before but I think I’ll give it a go.

Good luck with the journaling.

Oh the site is www.uinvue.com



Have bought one!!!! 4 months ago

I’ve started journals before and then not kept them up! Then have been procrastinating over just buying another book, then beating myself up and wondering why I just couldn’t start, haha. This time I bought a plain paper journal, so I can write ideas, thoughts, sketch and am not restricted by lines.

I decided to have a separate book for “anger/negative issues” for purging all that gunk…as I think this is why I kept stopped writing in my journal before (aha, that’s why I couldn’t get started) I’d read over all that “yucky stuff” and then feel worse.

I want to try and keep it simple and use it to help me find direction and inspiration.



sounds like an excellent idea. 5 months ago

I’ve tried before. And recently I’ve had things to write so have opened a word doc and typed it up.

I’d like to use the computer, but I’m leaving for camp in a few days. Maybe I’ll keep a written one there of that and make a real one when I’m back near computer access.



Urging from many sources 7 months ago

As part of a course I’m doing, it was strongly suggested that we started journaling.

That, together with the urging from “Pragmatic Thinking and Learning” decided me.

Success would be: 10 entries in 20 days.
