Using Creative Writing Journals To Write In

By Eula Clarke


Journals can be used for documenting different activities and aspects of life. Some creative writing journals to write in are bound with leather, others with cardboard or hemp. It is the information stored in the pages of these books which people often find most useful. Of course, the nicer the cover, the more likely the individual is going to want to use and share the book with others.

While there are a number of important aspects when documenting different life events, it is essential to use the right type book or diary for current needs. For example, while some may need a header with a month, day and year reference, others may not. In some cases, individuals may only want to use this type resource for sketching and taking notes which often need no such reference.

Whereas, when keeping a regular diary of diet and exercise for weight control, these type headings are quite useful. By keeping this type journal, individuals have the ability to look back on past eating and drinking habits to determine past history. Whereas, if the information is merely written down, it can often be difficult to see what may have been the contributing factors to any change which may have occurred over time.

For those with Diabetes Type I, or II, who need to log blood sugar counts on a regular basis, this type journal can often be a life saver. Having a reference to products consumed between readings can often help these individuals know when to add or cut back on sugar content based on past and present readings. These individuals can look back on foods, drinks and activities which have caused a rise or fall in blood sugar. After which, the individuals can discuss these changes with a health care provider to better help monitor any ongoing medication or treatment.

People who keep dream diaries often believe in dream interpretation. If this is the case, it is important to log as many visions seen as possible. It can also be good to note whether dreams occurred in color or black and white. Some research has shown that dreaming in color often indicates the dreams are prophetic. Whereas, the same research suggest black and white dreams are often based on fiction or history.

For those simply using a book with blank pages for ideas, or notes for school, generally a small book with blank pages works fine. Whereas, someone needing to take notes while researching family history may want to a much larger volume. Once completed, the journal can be modified into a beautiful scrapbook with photos and details featuring past and present generations.

While using an online journal is often a good idea when researching family history, it can often be difficult to use as a daily, weekly or monthly diary. When updated on a regular basis, these online sites can provide easier access to information. As such, each individual must decide which type works best when documenting different areas of life.

The most important aspect of keeping any history regardless of subject is to be honest in the writing. Otherwise, keeping the information can often prove quite worthless when desiring to use as a resource. As such, in order to find useful information during troubling moments in the future, it is important that the information be as accurate as possible when entered into any of these type journals.
