“Read, read, read. Read everything – trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You’ll absorb it. Then write. If it’s good, you’ll find out. If it’s not, throw it out of the window.”
–William Faulkner“Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.”
–Franz Kafka“The purpose of a writer is to keep civilization from destroying itself.”
–Albert Camus
Adding Images to your Journal
Over the last couple of weeks I have mentioned printing your photographs. Another reason I have found for printing is if you journal then you can add images to your journal. Sometimes an image can enhance your writing. The little postcard size means they can easily be glued into a small journal. In a way it is like creating a photo essay. Even though nobody else may ever read or look at your journal I think adding images will inspire you to write more and the process of taking, printing and glueing images into your journal will slow down your thoughts allowing you to be more reflective. In the ever increasing speed and slop content on social media I think that’s a good thing. What do you think?
