I was wondering the same thing myself. Is anyone still journaling? If anyone has created a journal, then I strongly recommend mooching it back. I've tried mooching journals recently and unfortunately have had no success.

I'm still here but haven't had much time. The last 3 weeks have been busy and this is the first time I've been online except at work.
Yes, journalling has been slow. I don't have the time Gill had ( or I should say seemed to be able to create out of mid-air) and frankly, as she noted several times...rising postage costs seem to have put a damper on things. Still, even if there is not a lot going on now I feel eventually that could change. I am slow - but all journals I have will go out. I don't know who has requested journals that hasn't recieved a response but without more information can't look into it. Certainly, any one who loves "this journalling thing" is welcome to actively promote interest and use their ideas to get things going again. Me, I love the idea of journalling so much I'm willing to take it - even if it is a shadow of its' former self - in the hopes things will pick up.
Gill really did a fantastic job of helping to protect our journals from disappearing at a rate that caused many people to give up. Now - how do we promote the idea and get things going again?

I feel guilty not being able to devote my time to journalling at present, but having written a novel after being challenged to by the author for whom I edit (for the love of it), I needed time to write.
Then came the huge decision to rehome all our many animals and declutter and renovate and put our beautiful holding on the market and move more than 600 miles, plus a ferry into rental accommodation whilst finding our new home in the north.
I've been decluttering for 8 months and we have been on the market since Easter, fingers crossed we sell this summer.
Renovations and repairs have kept us busy over the last winter and I have had to pare everthing back whilst we are still here. I'll add the link to our place so you can see what we are leaving,

and hopefully when we are settled I may be able to take up journalling once more. Meantime those journals of mine that had sat on a shelf unrequested have been donated to a home-schooling project. Other people's have been returned as much as possible, and I have a small number which are due to be passed onto Jacquie Clegg when she is next in the UK, packed up safely somewhere!
I'd love to come back to a vibrant journalling scene and know you are in safe hands with Deborah and her small team of assistants. (*slide show does not always work on i-pads)

Gill, there you are! I'm not ignoring you on Facebook... just can't be online that much. It's been a really bad couple of weeks too. If Jacquie lets me know who is ignoring her I'll at least look into it. Will try to catch up with you later. I don't even have time to go back (nor did I on the last post) to log in under the Journal Charity to make this post. Over the summer, it should be a little better. Best wishes,
Debbi

How do I find journal owners so that I can try and ask them to mooch back their journals that I have? I want to cut down on the stuff I'm going to have to move.
|

If the journal owner has put an email address in the journal, putting that into the search box on BM should find their profile. Otherwise look in BM for the first person who "gave" the journal. They will almost certainly be the owner. Go to their page and message them. Sorry out of touch with the jargon -- been too long!
Hope that helps. Gill

I've tried to wishlist all of my journals to get them back if they become available, but don't know if I added them all. If anyone has any that are mine, I'm happy to mooch them back. Let me know.

I've created two journals but they're circulating. I have several journals in my inventory, if anyone wants to mooch them.

I have TONS of journals. I've been in grad school and still don't have a lot of time, but I'd love to see things get going again. :) Journaling is SO much fun and I miss it! Jenny

I miss having the time I had a few years ago. I still love journalling tho! I'm working on 3 right now which I hope to have done in 2 weeks.
