Join Phyllis Theroux, author of The Journal Keeper, on Saturday, June 9th, for a seminar on how to keep a journal you will treasure. There are rules. She will share them. There are rewards. She will take you through a few mock journal-keeping sessions that will help you uncover those rewards on the spot. But the deepest reward is cumulative.  The habit of pausing each day to record one’s thoughts  and observations leads to a more thoughtful, observant life, and hooks one on the habit of journal keeping forever.
