Journal Writing Challenge
A couple of weeks ago I left a comment on Sizzling At Sixty regarding my life-long journal writing habit. I think it took Sue by surprise, because, by her own admission, she has always thought of me as the “photography lady”. When she realized that I had actually written and conducted a course in journal writing many years ago, she contacted me with an invitation to write a guest post for her blog. I could not have been more honored to participate.
Whether you keep a journal or not, I do hope you will pop over to Sizzling At Sixty and check out what I wrote. Sue has challenged her readers with a list of journal writing prompts for the month of July that will help you get started. The benefits of journal writing are endless and worth the effort it takes to make it a habit.
Sizzling At Sixty is focused on helping women thrive at any age and Sue lives what she preaches. I think you will find her content engaging and beneficial.
Hi, Suzanne – I loved the post that you wrote for Sue’s site. I encourage others to drop by and read it.

I enjoy her blog content and guest posts. I will go over and have a lookey at your post. I think keeping a personal diary is a great idea, but I do struggle to keep it up.

Having just read your post on Sue’s site, I realize you could have just as easily ended your intro above as “Write Your Life Right”.
A great post, Suzanne. Definitely very thought-provoking.

“Fear of prying eyes”, though irrational for me, still keeps me from journaling. Thanks so much for the encouragement.

Tracey, I get that. It is exactly why the volumes before my husband no longer exist!
