If you keep a journal for characters in a story, that's a great way to get in their heads, understand them more deeply. #JournalChat

JournalChat4:10pm via HootSuite

@jennaharvie Do you write fiction? I assume so based on character's thoughts. I applaud your "habit" of #journaling. #JournalChat

I keep two journals, one for personal thoughts and one for characters thoughts. It's habit now to write a page a day in each. #journalchat

@lifeofathinker #Journaling is a way of tuning in to be more clear on a subject; a diary is more matter of fact. Like a log. #JournalChat

Show Conversation

jillwinski4:07pm via TweetDeck

True! RT @JournalChat: @jillwinski That's why images can have such an impact. Are we drawn to it or pull back from it? #JournalChat

jillwinski4:07pm via TweetDeck

@lifeofathinker I guess I think of journaling as a deeper, more reflective process than keeping a diary.#JournalChat

@JournalChat So true, Dawn. We're really seeing so much of ourselves in each image. #JournalChat
