Default Thinking about starting a blog . . .

The thing is I love journaling (and my handwriting!) and have tons of books filled with my life, but now I'm thinking about coming over to the dark side, lol, because it's quicker to in get an entry and it saves the trees . So what do you guys think. . . should I continue journaling or go for a blog?

Well, you could start a blog, or you could keep an electronic journal, too... with a blog you can enter stuff anywhere you are as long as there's an internet connection.

I'm all for saving trees, and if you're a good typist you won't have hand cramping, either. Just be sure you save your entries somewhere in a thumb drive in a firesafe or something in the event of a system crash or fire. That way your beautiful writings won't get lost.

In reality, it's what you write that makes it personal... not necessarily the penmanship. And if you really do have lots of books filled already, you're set. Then your handwriting and journaling can then be used on your scrapbook pages.

I say take the plunge! Good luck~
