just a general statement, a survey, and some queries:
i have recently returned to my old-fashioned paper-based journal. over the last few days i have averaged at least 500 words a night. inexplicably, in a way that i can't really articulate, i feel much better. i'm starting to explore areas and sticking points that i haven't written down in years, and i think i'm starting to get somewhere.
so survey questions:
* who keeps a journal?
* is there a specific writing routine (in terms of days/week) that is both sustainable and useful?
* while i generally write whatever i feel like, is there any sort of useful program for guiding yourself through a series of questions?
* am i the only one that keeps old journals but never reads them?
* is it helpful to read what i wrote 5 years ago?i'd appreciate any insights and feedback into journaling that any of you may have. also general musings are welcome. :)
thanks.
