I don't keep a diary or a journal. Sometimes I'll send emails to friends, and that's a way of recording what I was thinking at any given time. But I've never been a journal keeper.

I've been keeping journals since I was 13.

I still can't manage to keep a journal, and people have been telling me to since the fourth grade.

I do not keep a diary. Never have. To write a diary every day is like returning to one's own vomit.

I've been keeping diaries for 27 years.

Journaling is something that I've always tried to get into.

My own habit had always been to write about the things that ticked me off in a given day. If I kept a journal at all, I kept it to vent.

I started to send my work to journals when I was 26, which was just a question of when I got the courage up. They were mostly journals I had been reading for the previous six or seven years.
