cupcakes
At the last minute, I picked up my journal and stashed it into my bag and brought it to the office today. I've done this a few times before and I end up just lugging it back home without having written anything in it.
Today was different.
I had some time to kill this afternoon while waiting for our graphics artist to render some slides for a presentation. Without even thinking about it much, I pulled out my journal and flipped it open to the last page that had anything in it --- which is just around 3 pages from the beginning of the book.
I had stuck a Cupcakes sticker there last Sunday, after buying three cupcakes by Sonja in Serendra. Yes, yes, I got curious about it.

Before I knew it, I was drawing cupcakes on the page. I filled in the opposite page, as well as the next spread.
I missed drawing.

I was just looking thru your journals. They are wonderful! Love the art in amongst the writing. Just great.

Since you like YA, you should read Jack Gantos! He has kept journals since he was a kid and he uses them as inspiration for his writing. He is famous for his Joey Pigza books but I love his Jack Henry series.
