INQ-277 | Keeping a Journal

Topic Description:

The personal journal can be literature, historical testimony, a way of delving into the psyche, a record of a spiritual journey or a way of life, a storehouse of dreams and ideas. In this course, you will write every day, share some of your writing and the reflections that arise from it with others, and be part of a supportive audience for others' writing. You will read examples of and try out many different kinds of journal writing in order to discover the kinds of personal writing that are most valuable to you. You will develop your skills and learn to use your journal for your own purposes by solitary practice and by shared reflection upon that practice.
