I have been busy getting 2010 off an running. Lots of reading and goal setting. My journal writing is being stretched with my writing group and with the last 'classic' I read ~ Dracula. Who would have thought that this classic would be a great class in journal writing! I have written a 10 ten list from the things I have seen in this book and my writing club ~ A more in depth review will be forthcoming.

I do hope all is going well with everyone! Our journal store will be opening next month ~ And new book club selections.

The author of 'Questing France' has sent me an email ~ She would like to make herself avalable to chat with those who have read her book! What a great opportunity to talk (write) directly to an author! If you are interested please let me know and I will make the arrangements if there is enough interest.

Keep journaling and I will talk to you in a week or so!

'Group Journals' Used To Destroy Count Dracula!
I have been reading the classic ‘Dracula’ and have been surprised how good this book is! It is written from the journals of those being written about. Each time a new person appeared you would see a line ‘FROM MENA HARKINS JOURNAL’ and read from her perspective.
