Last week, I read on Angela Hunt's blog about the Journal 10+, a "unique 11-year journal, planner and organizer." After looking at their web site, I ordered one. My copy arrived on Monday.
All I can say is, Wow! This is one awesome aid for the office and for life. This isn't a journal like I've thought of journals in the past. I will still have my regular journals to write in, to reflect in, to pray in. The Journal 10+ is something altogether different. It's a place to note things so that you can look back and see where you were a year ago or five years ago or ten years ago. I've always kept track of my writing production in my desk calendar. From now on, I will be doing it here.
The book has a soft leather cover and ideas for how to use the book. The lined pages are not so narrow that they are hard to write in. It feels good in your hands and on your desk.
This is a great way to keep track of your writing, your submissions, your contracts, your kids or grandkids achievements. Really anything you want to remember. It was suggested that it is also a good place to note when you make major purchases.
On the surface it looks a bit pricey, but when you recognize that this book will last you for 11 years, it comes out to $4.27 per year, including shipping. About 36 cents per month. You can't beat a deal like that, can you?
Thanks, Angie. This was a great addition to my organizational aids.
