In reply to my journal - a survey, posted by octopusprime on December 19, 2003, at 11:15:43
I have kept a journal since junior high on and off. But over the past few years, when I feel well enough, I write everyday. A good book is "writing down the bones" by Natalie Goldman. I found it helpful. I'm sure there are other books out there too. Looking back on old journals can be both a blessing and curse. You are writing from actual experience and hindsight is always 20/20. I've found some things to be sad, like when I write about my brother (he died two years ago), some things I regret, and other things make me happy remembering. I don't think there's any good "rules" - there's only what happens to work for you. Good luck in your writing journey.
