Journaling

I've kept a hand-written journal twice before for short periods.
Once when I was 20 and on a NOLS excursion in the North Cascades,
that was for 31 days. More recently, I had a written journal for
four months in 2013, but never kept up with it. Reading through both
recently made me realize the value such a journal can hold, not only
for selfish reasons, but for future generations of family members,
who might be interested in the personal details of their great-
grandfather's life, say.

So I'm going to try it again, with special attention made to
legibility. Some of my older entries are quite sloppy as I've never
had good handwriting when I'm in a hurry. So I'm trying to slow down
a bit, and have picked up on 'cursive italic' handwriting, which is
not only legible but aesthetically pleasing as well. The most-linked
resource seems to be 'Handwriting Repair' by Briem. The PDF is
freely available online [0]. I've also made the original available
in my gopherspace, as the license prohibits only commercial sharing
[1].
