10 TIPS EVERY JOURNALING BEGINNERS SHOULD KNOW | ANN LE

Use Jinhao 159 fountain pen. It is very good I have one too.

Can men journal? And what do i start writing with?

I love to journal, but at the heart of it, it should always be fun and I feel there should be some form of self discovery. In fact I have just done a video about 15 ways to journal that include things from guided journaling, happiness and gratitude journaling to photo journaling which can be a great deal of fun. I have also just started a series of Sunday journal questions so the second one will be up later today.

TUL has refillable ink inserts from OFFICE Depot or there website

Not trying to be rude but isn't it called being a journalist not a journaler?

get a parker pen
or a bauer

I’ve been consistently journaling for two years now! I’ve discovered I only like brown vegan leather journals with cream colored pages (apparently I really dislike white paper) and the only pen I like to use is the sharpie pen - but now I want to find a nice refillable one. Journaling is such a big part of my life, I’m always wanting to write things down. The other night I woke up out of a half sleep at two am to write down a piece of dream poetry. It’s such a beautiful way to immortalize your being.

which lipstick did you use in this video?

If you're looking for a good refillable pen I'd HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend getting a fountain pen. They write amazing and can be filled with whatever color of inks you like. If you're interested I'd check out the Goulet Pen Company. They're my go to.

PenGems are my favorite reuseable pens!

when you were talking about taking your journal with you to do “mind spills”, i was like “ huh, she calls them mind spills and i say brain dumps.”

useless comment, but i just thought i’d put it out there

What is the difference between a journal and a diary? I’m confused 🙈

I always keep thinking is 15 to old to start I know it sounds crazy but I dont know wha age is good to start

I've been journaling since I was 9. My journal was my best friend and confidant, but now that I have a boyfriend I stopped drastically, because the things I used to tell to my journal, now I'm telling my boyfriend. I guess that means I trust my boyfriend a lot, but I miss journaling. I wish I could find the time to do it again.

1. Be ready to mess up.
2. Feel excited about organizing and goals.
3. Let go of judgement especially on yourself.
4. Being able to be vulnerable in your journal.
5. Experiment with different journals (notebooks).
6. A few good pens.
7. Play around with different layout.
8. Play around with different mediums (pens, markers, watercolours and so on).
9. Have an essential beginners' kit.
10. Find inspiration.

Why do you say you need to be a professional to journal or do art in your journal? You dont need to be at a professional level to write out your deepest feelings over something thats bothering you or to write about grief or anxiety or depression

"it's better to start somewhere then no where at all"

There is no wrong way to keep a journal. all she's giving here is great. Personally i keep a journal using a writer program on my laptop, saving it to a flashdrive.

I wanna ask how you start up like what's the starting and ending lines and when you're writing are you used present tense oOr you can write it any way?

I'm the beginner to this beautiful activity 💗✌🏽

i love your outfit
