In the back I've recorded his yearly awards, achievements and volunteer work. This information has come in VERY handy when filling out college apps. I love a journal, any journal.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05758737470750841665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-2339201684680237202011-03-11T08:25:20.274-06:002011-03-11T08:25:20.274-06:00Hi Madeline,

Becky is so sweet. I hope you have the revised version of the anthology. We caught a few boo-boos after the first printing.<br /><br />Hi Lisa,<br />The journal is the perfect size, and I'm glad your ARC arrived safe and sound. Hope you enjoy reading it!<br /><br />Hi Melissa,<br />How cool that you have the same journal. Oh, I left a comment on your blog. Your post yesterday really got me to thinking.<br /><br />Hi Krysten,<br />Living in Portugal must've been an adventure. Hope you found lots of treasures while shopping there.<br /><br />Hi Clara,<br />I have several of the black and white ones, too, and I agree about how much fun it is to write in them. <br /><br />Donna<br />DonnaDonna Volkenannthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540727800410234483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-40132557632219044682011-03-11T07:11:06.137-06:002011-03-11T07:11:06.137-06:00I love journals, too, but I'm with Madeline--t...I love journals, too, but I'm with Madeline--the really pretty ones don't get used. I tend to fall back on those black & white marble covered composition books with ruled pages. I really love the tiny ones--everything I write in those feels like a delicious secret!Clara Gillow Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10204130118900222511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-34667202262556480272011-03-11T02:29:37.302-06:002011-03-11T02:29:37.302-06:00When we were overseas in Portugal, my favorite thi...When we were overseas in Portugal, my favorite thing to do was hit the local stationary shop to see if they had any journals in stock. Absolutely love getting a fresh new one.Krysten Lindsay Hagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16687796258797315699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-81702031351329157832011-03-10T21:01:51.186-06:002011-03-10T21:01:51.186-06:00OMG!

In fact, I have two going - one for all my blahblahblah thoughts and feelings, and another where I jot down specific writing/story ideas or gather descriptive words and phrases. I get mine from Amazon.com. They also carry soft covered ones that have a kind of microsuade cover with imprint of a dragonfly. They are not expensive.Melissa Ann Goodwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454907380469372468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-77509282152755104282011-03-10T20:31:48.530-06:002011-03-10T20:31:48.530-06:00Hi Donna - I'm so glad you like the journal!

Also, I received my book today, "The Heart is Not a Size," that I won in your contest. Can't wait to read it!
