I thought it could use a separate blog.<br /><br />Teresa -- A hard copy of our journal is good. I don't know if it has to be in handwriting for those of us who don't handwrite so good. But something left behind that's not digital is good.<br /><br />J.B. -- For now I will mostly wing it and write as I go, but I do have some a hard copy of my father's autobiography which I will eventually excerpt here. At one post a week it will be slow going. At first I will mostly be exploring the topic of memoir writing from my point of view and that of any guest posters who will be joining me here. Maybe eventually I'll decide I need more posting days.<br /><br />LeeArlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889973587380183147.post-45510705495957053462011-10-17T19:31:27.074-07:002011-10-17T19:31:27.074-07:00Journaling Woman, How do you preserve the handwrit...Journaling Woman, How do you preserve the handwritten stuff?
