I’ve been talking a lot about resolutions around here. If you’re a writer, but can only seem to muster the energy to write a tweet everyday - then this 5-year journal is for you.
When 140 character tweets are the new micro-novel, this writing exercise can help boost your desire to write and help you remember life as the days pass you by. The Q & A a day journal asks you a question every day for a year. Then, you come back each year for five years and answer the question again and again and again.
Why is this important or worthwhile? It helps with writer’s block. It keeps you thinking in short word lengths. It helps you document your life, which many of us no longer do. In fact, Facebook appears to be the new form of the scrapbook.
If you want to remember life, but don’t want to write a novel each day or find yourself intimidated by the long blank page - then this is the journal for you.
Here’s some more great journals for those resolving to write:
