What should I use to write in my personal journal?

Self-expression in my personal journal?

First, get out crayons, markers, colored pencils, paints, regular pens (blue, black and red), and pencils. Then start to write or draw anywhere on the page of your personal journal. As you write with each different material, you will begin to get a feel for what feels most comfortable in your hand and what allows you to truly express yourself. The journal space is yours, there is nothing limiting you. So make it your own! To begin, don´t even think about what to start. Write in large capital letters or write small. Write sideways on the page, upside down or the normal way from left to right. Write in script or in print. Do whatever makes you feel good and what allows you to see yourself represented on the journal page.
