It's all fun and games for the first month but after that it just becomes a chore. And if you stop writing for couple days you're on a slippery slope - there's a high chance that you'll never start again. I know, I've been trying to start and keep a journal many times. I've never lasted more than 2 months. Keeping a journal is very hard. It’s all fun and games for the first month but after that it just becomes a chore.

I truly believe, it´s a great idea to record all our memories, but I have some questions: - Aren´t you scared that people find your diary, how do you handle that? - Do you write exactly your deeper feelings or do it like some poetry, what about the details you write? - Do you share it? Those are the points that I haven´t solved, and that are strenghting me to start a diary...

It is the reason I began writing A Week In The Life of A Redhead - to journal my life raising my son, so that he might enjoy it later on. I lost my own father at 18 and have only a few pictures of him. how wonderful it would be to see something written by him. I've gone on to start 8 Women Dream and have encouraged the women to journal their part of the project, again to create a written history of a time in their lives.
