Journaling: why I do it and what it does for me

One picture quote at a time

This is an image from Jess' Instagram. It is a spread from one of her journals, the main colour scheme is pink and the journal has multiple drawings and things stuck on it.

To have been asked to write this is, in truth, a shock. Sure, I post my stuff on Instagram and sure, I appreciate likes and follows like anyone else, but for someone to have contacted me and asked me to write about my journaling journey based on that is just insane.

Niamh Griffiths

I go to a bar and order a whiskey. I get complimented and criticised in equal measure. “That’s a very masculine drink for such a delicate young lady. Are sure you don’t want something else?
