		<description><![CDATA[Setting a resolution to write daily &#8212; or even weekly, or monthly &#8212; for the New Year is an achievable and beneficial personal goal to set . It doesn&#8217;t deprive you of food, it doesn&#8217;t require a membership anywhere, the cost is cheaper than a latte and it&#8217;s a fairly quiet agreement between you and [&#8230;]]]></description>

I think one of the struggles everyone who journals on a personal level encounters is the possibility of someone, whether stranger or close, could [&#8230;]]]></description>

If the book says, Personal Diary or Personal Letters of so and so, I buy it. Virginia Woolf was a prolific writer herself, both as her &#8216;work&#8217; and on a personal level. It was reading a [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Looking back over my writing life, I can see stages where my personal evolution of style, purpose and attention in all things I&#8217;ve wrote shifted. I hesitate to claim the simple act of aging has been the stepping stone to my writing maturity because I&#8217;ve come across people far younger than myself who already contain the wisdom I wish [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Journals are the backbone of a personal history. Nothing says individual experience more than, Dear Diary, backed up by writing that pours from the mind and heart. I have journals for every need. Random thoughts, sketches, poetry, stories, day to day meanderings and simple observations to name a few. No matter how many journals I acquire, I&#8217;m [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every Website must have a beginning and I&#8217;ll make this entry simple. Writing by hand is the black and white premise of Patrons of The Pen. Maybe it&#8217;s contradictory to write about handwriting via a computer&#8230;out on the Internet, but I believe the two can meld together. I know I&#8217;m not the only one who has [&#8230;]]]></description>
