As I read more personal blogs, I see the need for people to keep their thoughts personal. I am all for expressing yourself in a journal, but I personally don’t feel it should be shared with the world.

Okay, I was thrilled to receive a comment on yesterday’s entry from Linda Woods in which she details the missing instructions I mentioned. Makes sure you take a look.

On rereading this old blog entry I discovered that the Sisters on Sojourn have in fact changed their website. They now have Journal Revolution, which promotes their book of the same name: Journal Revolution: Rise Up & Create! Art Journals, Personal Manifestos and Other Artistic Insurrections.

Just over the weekend and the last few days I’ve been incredibly busy. So busy I haven’t had my usual afternoon journal sessions. Today I made a journal date, a bit like an artist date, and sat for a while and played in my journal. I didn’t worry too much about catching up with the […]

Tonight, while reading online, I came across this news story. Paper Mate and City of Hope Cancer Center presented a six-foot tall pink journal for people to sign their messages of hope to breast cancer sufferers all over the US. I like the idea of using the huge journal as a place for people to […]
