I’ve been waiting to read Chronicles: Volume One by Bob Dylan for ages. When I first read about it I requested it from my local library, along with several hundred other people. I’m still on that list.

I have to admit; I’ve never read any of Anais Nin’s diaries.
Ok, I did try once, but just couldn’t get into them. I know a lot of people are thoroughly inspired by her diaries, though, so perhaps I should try again. Anyway, you can read excerpts of her diaries here to get a taste. […]
I enjoyed reading this news story about actor, writer and director Richard E Grant. Apparently he’s kept a journal for the last 40 years. Grant says of keeping a diary:

I couldn’t help feel a little disturbed after reading this news story about murdered cricket coach Bob Woolmer. Murder is disturbing at any time, but the story included the mention that his diary was missing.
I couldn’t help wondering if he was killed for what that diary contained. Which lead me to think about what […]
According to this news story Anna Nicole Smith’s diaries were sold to the highest bidder on ebay last Thursday. Apparently a German businessman was the highest bidder of both diaries on offer. The news story reveals his plans for the diaries.
I can’t help wondering what interest anyone, but a fan, would have in these […]

I read this news story with interest today. I felt a little guilty when I noticed Notebookism also posted this, but I felt the more people who know about this diary the better.
Here’s a direct link: Emma Darwin’s Diaries 1824-1896. Her writings certainly aren’t elaborate, but I’m sure you will find them interesting, too.
