Mother’s Day is coming up, and I have the perfect gift idea for you. I bet you can guess what I’m going to suggest…
You’re right–a Five-Year Journal!
I have been talking about my Five-Year Journals for so long now that I forget many of you may not know the story of how I came to create my own version.
I went into my News archives to find an article I wrote back in 2012, and I thought I’d share it with you today. In it, I talk about how I designed and then filled my very own Five-Year Journals. Click here to read it.
Once you have used your own Five-Year Journal for a while, you’ll be surprised how helpful it can be to mine your own life for details, descriptions, and story elements to use in your stories.
If you haven’t already watched the three recently-created videos I’ve shared over the past three newsletters, you can watch them at your leisure:

Many Uses for a Five-Year Journal
Just think–when you give your mother a Five-Year Journal, you are also giving yourself the gift of her written daily remembrances and wisdom, ready to pass down, cherish, and share with your own children and grandchildren someday.
