Today I had to spend a long time sitting around in a waiting room. I also had to look after my two year old, so it wasn’t a moment for journal writing. There were plenty of magazines only a couple of years old, though, so I made use of these. Instead of the usual gossip […]

Pen & Paper Still the Best

I read this blog entry tonight with interest. If you have time read the entire entry describing the many and varied devices available to recreate writing in a notebook or journal. Daryl D came to his conclusions through his own investigations.
What do you think? Have you used any of these devices with much success? […]

Photo of New Journal

Ok, I promised a photo of my daughter’s new journal. Today I managed to squeeze in a quick moment to snap off a few shots. This is a pic of the front cover. The back is just pale blue, like the palest circles on the front.

Yet another celebrity will take up the journal pen to write their memoirs. According to this news story Paris Hilton plans to write about her prison experience while serving time. Personally, I can’t see that it would be very interesting, but she does have celebrity on her side. I’m sure someone will buy it. I […]
