Dear Reader:
I decided to launch this online writing journal as a way to push myself to write more and to write more fearlessly. If you read my About page, you’ll find I call my relationship with writing a sort of “Schrödinger’s-cat-dilmena: half-loathing, half-loving.” It’s true.
Speaking of which, you may have noticed that my journal is split into two different categories, “Scrawls” and “Proper Scrawls.” That’s because I hope this space will serve a two-fold purpose: “Scrawls” will be an outlet for whatever raw content tumbles out of my brain (i.e. writing exercises/experiments, tidbits of my life, late-night rants, general thoughts) while “Proper Scrawls” will house an online portfolio of my polished essays and poetry.
I’ll also intersperse samples of my art (I work mainly in digital art) throughout to hopefully make things look a little less drab.
I plan on posting at least once every week but we’ll see how fast my school workload or my procrastination catches up to me.
Anyways, that’s all I have to say. Feel free to look around and I’m totally open to any comments, suggestions, or criticism as I hope to grow in my writing. You can also shoot me a message on my Contact page.
Yours truly,
Jooce
P.S. I’m a highly indecisive person so the layout of my journal could easily experience a total overhaul any day. But for now, it’ll do.
