It's my birthday!
I woke up an hour or so ago and was filled with so much grateful to be alive.
I knew I needed to do something with that gratitude, to share it as my post for today.
I looked through all the blog posts I've written over the years, and this one filled me with joy, so I rewrote it with my list for today.
I hope it inspires you to write your own list!

For my first Blaugust post, I wrote about a journalling prompt that I use to help me with interoception and emotional regulation, inspired by the UI of The Sims 4. It's for when you just kind of Feel Bad but are having a hard time untangling the reasons why you feel bad and figuring out what to do about it.

I have always had bad handwriting but it has gotten better over the past couple of years by simply journaling. This week, inspired by [Neal Stephenson's post](https://nealstephenson.substack.com/p/writing-by-hand-is-good-for-your) I bought a cheap-ish fountain pen. Writing with it is a different world
Never in my life would I have thought I would care about such things, but here I am.

Wer nutzt #orgmode für #Journalling?
Ich komme von #Logseq und lege mir dort bei jedem Tag einen Eintrag an. Dieser ist mit einem Hauptthema verlinkt. So komme ich vom Hauptthema zum Tag oder vom Tag zum Hauptthema.Bei orgmode experimentierte ich mit #orgroam. @publicvoit hat die Nachteile gut beschrieben:
https://karl-voit.at/2020/06/14/Zettelkasten-concerns/#Denote legt unendlich viele kleine Dateien an, die schwer zu verlinken sind.
(wie) macht ihr das?

Fern 🪴 v1.5.0 is born! 💖 It brings Keybinding "presets" for many of the major text editor families. Now, you can switch to a preset "base layer" for #Vim, #Emacs, #Helix and #VSCode (ie. GUI-like editors. Called it 'arrows'. Sorry, not sorry. lmao). Custom keybindings in your config file take precedence and are layered over the base presets.
Big thanks to @[email protected] for their feedback that lead to the idea and gave me the motivation to crank on it!

Looking to add some color to my daily #journalling - what do you recommend? Currently I use A5 notebook & black pens
Colored pens? Oil crayons? Colored pencils? Other ideas?
If you've got something that works great for you, please share - pictures & inspiration would be great to see.

Second year of keeping a #diary:
- going all in on the ring binding system, including getting the overpriced puncher was the right choice. I know from the past already that enriching the diary by taping or gluing stuff in just doesn't work for me. Punch a hole in it and clip it in works perfectly. I think without the puncher I wouldn't like it half as much.
- self design & print also 👍
- frequency and monthly reviews have room for improvement. -

Art, sex, nature: why is everything sold to us as a means to an end, rather than an end in itself?
How a reductive worldview is stripping meaning from our most valued activities.

By the way: a few days ago I finally finished my custom traveller's notebook cover / wallet!
All in all I'm very happy with how it turned out. There are a few things I might adjust or do differently for a V2. For example, the money compartment could be a little wider and attaching bias tape straight is harder than I thought.
I'll have to tinker with the closing mechanism: in theory, there are magnets and ferrofoil in there, but although I tested it and thought it should work, in practice the adhesion through the two layers of leather is so weak that you barely notice it :( Maybe I'll try bigger magnets or a magnetic button.
But still, most things work just as planned in real usage and the aesthetics work as I hoped! I enjoyed working with this cork leather a lot (sadly the shop I got it from closed down, so I'll have to look somewhere else for fuzure projects).
The hardest thing for me about this project was serial decision paralysis. Since I planned this all by myself from scratch, every single measurement and design was a decision I had to figure out. Which was especially hard to do starting from a blank page. For my next project I'll probably do something guided with a pattern to recuperate :D
If and when I'll find the time, I'll sort out and upload my plans, in case anyone wants to make something similar themselves :D

So, over the last few years, I've been preparing a journalling #RPG that I have recently become obsessed with all over again.
It's called The Game for Scribes and it is a tarot-driven RPG for one (with optional multiplayer rules) that puts you in the shoes of the ruler of a small medieval-fantasy domain and the chronicaller who keeps the history. The game guides you through turns comprising years, each turn adding a brick to the wall of narrative that helps drive your journalling efforts (or even the background activity of your TTRPG campaign).
I've been periodically streaming gameplay and #journalling from the game on my twitch channel here, including the journaling process in a book I bound' with my own hands.
(Posting this #selfpromo post from Patch this week because my main writerly instance doesn't support markdown or this post length)

I read somewhere that back in ye olden days, people didn't write their journals and diaries in prose like we're "supposed" to do nowadays. They'd just have bullet points, like:
- Got married today
- Had a baby
- Moved across the countryThis is the strategy that finally got me to journal consistently. I'll expand into feelings and speculation and philosophical whatever when I feel like it, but removing that pressure made it so much easier...

I finished my five year journal! (Sort of. I finished it based on the dates it has, but I'm still writing in it. :ablobgiggle:)

Ach, only a few days late
Might as well start as I'll probably continue"Just as winter gives way to spring, JANUARY is the first step toward the year’s endless possibilities."

The latest Fountain Pen First Impressions video is now available for your viewing pleasure.
In this video I take a brief look at the Kinbor A5 Planner.
I talk through how I am planning to use it, and see how the paper performs with various fountain pens and inks.

I'm a strong believer in starting New Year's resolutions early: Yesterday, I began #journalling with a daily, handwritten journal. At the moment, each entry is simple bulletin points, but I'm sure the format is going to evolve into something a lot messier and less rigid! #AmWriting #Writing

This month I've been making international online pals with crafters who livestream on YouTube.
It's a new world for me but the community has been very friendly and helpful so far. They even asked about my writer friend @andyluke ,
who also has a channel.If anyone is looking for online chat over card making and junk journals, I'd be happy to point you in their direction.
