I'm going to start a new journal, one that has prompts and questions to guide the entries. I keep a journal every day, but all I've been writing in it is my daily diet notes and stuff for work. I think I'm avoiding writing anything personal lately because of all the sadness over losing my mom and the stress of saying farewell to my favorite person as she moves across the country for her new job. I know it's better to get those feelings out on the page, but other than what I've written on the blog I'm not quite ready.
When I was a teenager I kept poetry and prose journals, which were fun. Now I'm thinking about writing a story entirely in longhand, too. Computers are so much more efficient and convenient, but there's something about hand writing a story that no technology can match.
