Washi tape is such a silly fad. If you look up "art journals" you will see a lot of that kind of stuff.

I journal for clarity, too. It's the way I process what is happening in my life, and it helps me to move through it, and move on.

I like the idea of journals in folders for ease of retrieving what you want. I still love to write by hand, though. I think it helps me move the emotions out of my body and onto the page.

Thanks for sharing your process. I hope you have your journals backed up somewhere in case your computer crashes! :)
