I am really excited to read about Meg Cabot’s initiative with YALSA (Young Adult Library Services Association), encouraging teens to keep journals.

Today while wasting time, because I had to wait for something, I spent time in a book store. Out the front they had a book by Jason Donovan, the former Neighbours star & singer. Not that I’ve ever been a fan, don’t watch soapies, but I was interested enough to search the book online tonight. […]
Today I came across this news story about Jimi Hendrix. The article is a review for the book Jimi Hendrix: An Illustrated Experience. This book is an exciting take on material already known & shown about Hendrix; the difference being about 30 interactive pieces, which are reproductions from actual ephemera of the guitar legend’s life, […]
I read this news story with interest. Seems somebody thinks Britney Spears is going to publish her diary. Somebody else says this won’t be happening. Either way, Spears continues to make news just for keeping, or not keeping, a journal. I’m sure glad no one wants to read my boring scrawlings. How about you? Please […]

I read this article about singer/songwriter Cary Brothers today. In the article he makes this statement:
“I feel like I’ve been writing a personal journal since I was 16 years old, and now I’m showing that journal to the whole world. ”
If Brothers keeps a journal or not, his reference inspired me to ask the question; […]
This news story shares that Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx has a book coming out in September. Titled The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star, the book is based on the year Sixx allowed his drug addiction to take control of his life and how he came out alive. […]
I saw this news story about renewed interest in Jim Morrison’s death while researching online today. Sam Bernett, a former nightclub manager in France, has released a new book, The End: Jim Morrison, detailing what he claims is the truth about the night the legendary singer died.
