Journal: 365+ writing prompts, ideas and quotes to cultivate joy (Volume 1)

Journal: 365+ Writing Prompts, Ideas and Quotes to Cultivate Joy and Well-being offers close to 400 prompts alongside thoughtful or whimsical quotations as well as two bonus appendices of folk wisdom for writers, and writers on writing.

A detailed introduction explains the benefits and value of journaling along with suggestions for daily writing practices.

Many of the ideas in this book would be welcome as dinner table discussion material along with family sharing of gratitude, brags, desires and even vulnerabilities (just like in a journal).

Journal: 365+ Writing Prompts, is part of the kindle matchbook campaign. When you get the paperback first as a gift for a friend (or yourself), you can then get the kindle version for free.

Set down your memories, experiences, gratitude, goals and achievements.

Use your private journal time for your “brain dump.” Scan and sweep your mind and don’t forget to appreciate all the good around you. Vent your anger, exult in your accomplishments, savor your blessings. Write poetry, short stories, or letters to your younger or older self.

Journal-keeping has a way of making things happen. It’s a processing plant for projects in the future and challenges and annoyances from the past. Get the words in your heart out. Find clarity. Prioritize goals.

If you absolutely insist you can even get digital and password-protected, but then you’ll miss the fun of doodling, adding arrows and mind maps along with the romantic pen and paper connection.

Begin this book any day of the year. Each day, read a quote and a new prompt and get comfortable with your few minutes of sweet private time away from the world. Journal in bed first thing in the morning, at the end of the day, or with your 4 pm tea break. Make it a new habit that becomes your gift to yourself. (You can skip a day now and then. No one’s taking attendance.)

Find additional strength and support by finding a trusted journal-reading partner or non-judgmental, small, intimate group with whom to share your writing. This could be a soul mastery group which could meet once a week or by Skype or however you develop it.

Of course you can journal with only your simple blank notebook, but this book will give you a real push to sustain your writing along with some novel ideas for releasing that inner junk that’s been looking for a way out.

Go ahead, crack open that notebook and pick up that beloved pen you got as a present. Choose your favorite location and preferred time. WRITE one day at a time until you’ve found a new loving introspective behavior.

The Franciscan Heart of Thomas Merton: A New Look at the Spiritual Inspiration of His Life, Thought, and Writing

Daniel Horan, O.F.M., popular author of Dating God and other books on Franciscan themes–and expert on the spirituality of Thomas Merton–masterfully presents the untold story of how the most popular saint in Christian history inspired the most popular spiritual writer of the twentieth century, and how together they can inspire a new generation of Christians.

Millions of Christians and non-Christians look to Thomas Merton for spiritual wisdom and guidance, but to whom did Merton look? In The Franciscan Heart of Thomas Merton, Franciscan friar and author Daniel Horan shows how, both before and after he became a Trappist monk, Merton’s life was shaped by his love for St. Francis and for the Franciscan spiritual and intellectual tradition. Given recent renewed interest in St. Francis, this timely resource is both informative and practical, revealing a previously hidden side of Merton that will inspire a new generation of Christians to live richer, deeper, and more justice-minded lives of faith.
