"DEAR DIARY . . . Today was a bad day! I saw so-and-so in the cafeteria line during lunchtime and she didn't even speak to me. Next time I see her, I'm not going to talk to her either, so she can see what being ignored feels like. I don't think we're going to be … Continue reading Fast-tracking the Journaling of Your Moods and Behaviors
Couldn't help myself. Couldn't help myself. I just had to take a moment and push pause on my own words to make room for someone else's.

It would be a summer-long project geared toward getting his writing juices flowing by allowing him to … Continue reading Reblog – Living While Writing
