Lots of people in the intros thread said that they liked reading so I thought we should have a bookish thread! 📖 What are you reading at the moment? Are you enjoying it? Didn’t you love it when…? Let us know! Please make sure to clearly mark spoilers if you’re going to post details about books!

Dear Sanctuary Members, We hope this message finds you well. After thoughtful consideration, we’ve decided to close our community platform in one week. We’ve heard from many of you that accessing the journaling prompts through a separate portal wasn’t the most convenient option. To better serve you, we’re excited to announce that our journaling prompt exercises will now be available directly on our website and delivered straight to your inbox. This change will make it easier for you to continue your journaling journey without any extra steps. Thank you for being part of our community. We look forward to continuing to support you in your personal growth through our new format. Warm regards, Team STM.

So the conventional bullet journal wisdom is that if you keep everything in one journal you will always know where everything is, it integrates your life, etc. But recently I started an art notebook to keep track of ideas for paintings and it quite rapidly turned into a kind of bullet journal. So my question is: do you use just one journal at a time, or do you have several on the go at once? What do you put in a different journal? And what do you like about your approach?

Can you believe it? We’ve been crafting the things you love for eight incredible years—that’s practically a lifetime in journal years! But we’re not here to just celebrate. We want to hear from the real heroes—you—about how we can make STM even better. We’ve put together a super quick survey with just four questions here: https://forms.gle/9tE5MT1Jp9MrKs7k8. No long essays needed, just your honest thoughts. Your feedback could spark the next big idea in the journaling world. Seriously, no pressure. Thank you for being such an awesome part of our creative journey. We’re here because of you, and we want to make sure we’re delivering what you need. Stay creative (and caffeinated), The STM Team ☕️ P.S. We’re not fishing for compliments (though we wouldn’t mind them!). We genuinely want to hear what you think, so go ahead and spill the ink! 🎨🖋️
