Journiv has got me to try journaling seriously for the first time. I’m a bit envious of those able to do so naturally, I’ve been forgetting to make daily entries more often than not
I am glad it is serving it’s purpose. Notification/reminders will come soon to Journiv which will help with forgetting to write :)
I’ve really always wanted to write a memoir or chronology of sorts. Not that I’m going for Amazon’s best seller list. More so, the process of it. There used to be this guy on Reddit who was autistic (I believe) or some other disability. He is enamored with the weather. He would do weather reports with a fair amount of accuracy, and at the time had garnered the attention of news outlets. He wrote a book about the weather, and published it on Amazon. It was inspiring. Since then, it’s a thought that’s been rattling around in my head.
