Using Creative Writing Journals To Write In

By Eula Clarke


There are a number of different type books which individuals can use for keeping track of life events. Some relate to diet while others relate to dreams. Regardless, using creative writing journals to write in can be a good resource for documenting various aspects of life.

One important aspect of using a diary is in using the right type for each life event. For example, someone monitoring blood sugar may want to use one with a month, day and year heading. The individual then has a record to share with a health care provider when necessary. A daily log can also be a good reference to reflect back on which food and drink may have caused a spike or downfall in blood sugar readings.

Depending on the individual, some may want to use dates for dreams, others may not. Although, regardless as to whether one logs a date, it is important to log as much information about the dream as possible. It can also be beneficial to note whether the dream happened in black and white or color, and if the events have either come to pass, or potentially could come to pass in the future.

Individuals living with health conditions like Diabetes Type I, or II, are often required by health care providers to keep a daily diary. In doing so, the provider can monitor any changes which might be necessary with regards to medication or treatment over time. Whereas, it also allows the individual to note whether or not there have been changes to blood sugar levels on a regular basis.

Scrapbooks to some extent can also be seen as creative journals. Baby and wedding books, family trees and other items can all be recorded in these style books. Some of the best journals are those that reflect these most important times of life which might include a photo along with a short entry explaining the event.

When simply using a booklet to write down thoughts for different writing projects, date references are not always necessary. The same is true for those who love to simply doodle or sketch. Most often, the type used for art like sketching, or simple note taking do not require a date reference.

When it comes to keeping journals online, like those using "Live Journal, " updating can often be delayed. Individuals using hard copy booklets, diaries and ledgers can often write down information in the moment. Though, for those who can update online journals on a regular basis, the information can often be more easily accessible when away from home. Some people find that writing in a booklet, then uploading the information into an online system provides the best of all scenarios.

When logging information into any type of book, it is important that information be as true and correct as possible. Otherwise, it can often prove difficult to use the information as a resource. Whereas, if the information is accurate and well documented, one can often find resolutions used in the past which may prove useful in the future.
