  • Reviews of different physical journals and pens to make your journal uniquely yours

  • Ways to make room in your day for daily journaling, to make it a habit

I believe I was put here for a purpose: to write, create, and inspire people! Therefore, most of the time, you can find me doing (or trying to do) one of those things. When I'm not vegging out to video games or stuffing my face full of cheesy poofs.
