Doll Diary

[Ima AG Fan]

Do any of u keep a diary for your doll? I do. I write 4 Felicity. I use a little mini notebook keychain that I took the keyring off of. It's perfect. My best friend gave it 2 me, so it's all the more special.

Lindsey has a diary that I made, but she doesn't write in it often. Kit will probably do a typing diary once I get her typewriter, too.

Oh, and I used to use those keychain diaries as diaries for my Stacie, Whitney, Janet, and Katie dolls (as in Barbie's little sister, Stacie!). I still have them, and they are fun to look in. [img]wink.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I try to use my imagination. Ever hear the saying, "if life's boring, make something up!"

I don't know about writing a diary, but I would like to write a continuation to the lives of Felicity, Samantha and Josefina at some point. I wouls like to see Cherry to do this too, as she is an excellent writer.

Thanks, Lindy!

I tend to keep diaries for my AGT 19 alterego, Gina, but like me, she writes journal entries in spurts. She kept a journal fairly consistently for the 2 years it took to complete the American Girl Historian projects and become a fully accredited AG Historian. It turned out to be useful because she wrote about when my mother first got shingles and recently I needed to know how long ago it was. I remembered helping Gina to write a poem wishing that my mother would get better, so went back and found the date in her journal.

I like the small bound notebooks for journals. I also like the 3 inch square spiral bound notebooks, that look sort of like school notebooks. In a pinch, I've written journals in address books with pretty covers.

Gina likes the scrap book approach to journals, so I often reduce photocopies of newspaper reviews of movies we've seen or make reduced color copies of photos I took to stick into her journal.

I don't have any desire to write future stories about other people's characters but some day I'd like to write down the stories I've photographed using the AGs.
