I recently started journal writing, and I was wondering how many of you keep a journal.

I tried for a while when I was a bit younger, but it drove me into a very deep depression so I got rid of it and never tried to make another attempt at it.

No way, but then again, I hate to write. Even signing signatures is annoying, because it looks like hell.

I keep a dream journalSeraphimGoddess

I used to keep a dream journal as well. I was fascinated with lucid dreaming when I was younger and it was suggested that was the best way to go about experiencing one. I'd wake up and write as quickly as I could before I forgot everything. In the beginning they were really abstract but that changed after a while.

Well, it hasn't really helped me in the field of lucid dreaming so far, not that that's the goal of me recording them, but still. :(

What's your goal? Or is it just for fun?

Mostly it's to improve my memory of dreams so I could hopefully find out what a reoccurring nightmare/terror I've been having lately is about. Don't remember what happens, but I do recall it's the same one. Then I heard dream journals improve overall memory function related to that, so here I am with my book filled with half-asleep ramblings in chicken scratch.

I sometimes keep a log of any strange or interesting dreams I've had. It's pretty interesting to go back and read them after awhile.

Yeah, it's good writing practice and useful if something's on my mind. Sometimes feel like a douche after reading an old entry though.

I keep a blog. My handwriting looks like I'm mocking Michael J Fox, so I couldn't keep a hard copy journal.

I did, at one point, but it was some school project.

Other than that, never really had one.

I write with my left and I'd consider it a curse. Easy to identify my writing though I suppose.

I'm left handed too, I think its the world around us that makes it untidy, like folders, the ring binders are in the way.

Although i still rather be a lefty then a righty.

I used to keep something that slightly resembled a journal, but it was more for sketches and comics than just writing.

I just write from the back of the notebook to the front. I love being a lefty.

I keep a dream journal just because mine are incredibly weird and surreal.
