About the author

During her many years researching for people's ancestors as a professional genealogist, Valerie uncovered so many unbelievable stories – many that were stranger than any fiction anyone could write.

Valerie loves to imagine all sorts of devious plots and delights in putting her characters into as many worst-case scenarios as she can.

Valerie and her family live in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, with their rescued, half-blind Pitbull, who was saved from being a bait dog in a dogfighting ring. Their latest rescue is a longhaired kitten named Mayhem, who definitely lives up to her name.

I was not quite sure at first if I will be motivate to write journal by reading this book since I never been good at keeping journal throughout my life. I also I had misconceptions about what and why we write Journal. Valerie did clarified me; how my Journal writing will affect my existence as one individual lived on this earthly life. She has made me realize that importance of leaving my legacy with my personal identity behind as valuable inheritance to my children and grandchildren. So that I will exist in my descendant’s mind forever. She also teach readers the methods of Journal writing that help continue motivating the Journal writer. It is a good book for beginner and returning Journal writer.

Many books have a series of things to do, of exercises, of tasks. Most of the time I read through and do a few of the exercises at the front of the book. This time I got excited. On day 2 I jumped out of bed an hour early to work on it. I went through my journal and discovered that I've attended several classes by Valerie S. Elkins.

I was stuck for a while on the first 3 days. Those first three days set the background & are thus important. I am moving forward again now. Instead of days think of them as time periods as in the creation in the book of Genesis.

I have never been one who wrote in my journal on a regular basis. With that, I was hoping this book would give me the initiative to change my ways. Daily writing was something I never did and still don't but, I liked Valerie's many ideas. I liked writing about likes and dislikes. Also, talents and pet peeves. I can see how applying the suggestions is very positive. I highly recommend this book.
