Diaries I Read: |
I�ve kept paper journals since I could write. For years, I wrote every single night. I treasure my journals. A friend introduced me to the world of online journaling a couple of years ago, and at first it sounded totally counter-intuitive, since my journals had always been very, very private. But once I started looking around and reading others� journals, I was hooked. I still have mixed feelings sometimes about broadcasting my private thoughts and feelings on the Internet. I try to stay pretty anonymous. But really, I have a pretty small audience, so it�s OK. At the same time, though, it makes me happy to find out I�ve gained a reader. I try to keep my journal as straightforward and honest as possible. Although I do try to write in a way that will be interesting and entertaining, I won�t sacrifice the truth for humor or wit. People have told me that I�m a very genuine person � I don�t put on airs or try to be someone I�m not. For better or worse, I don�t mask my emotions. What you see is what you get. Same with my journal � what you read is what you get.
