Beginning to See the Light
|
We love the way that she combines prose, poetry, music, and images in her entries, and always has something fascinating to describe - be it internal or external.

A great realization, and a great entry - so many of us could have had this conversation.

October 9, 2009 [Dailies 39]
|
This Editor's Choice is not so much for this one entry (although it is a good one) - this diary of daily prompts is serious fun, and could be nominated for sheer energy and force of will. Every day, a new prompt or challenge is posted, with dozens of OD members participating and responding.

Desire
|
This statement on longing is a wonderful combination of the writer's dense (and I mean that in a good way) prose and beautiful poetry. If you've ever wanted for another, you'll know what he's talking about.

|
We love diaries that help people to reach a goal, or give support to people doing something difficult. This fitness and weight loss group is doing both.

Don't Let Me Explode

One of the best things about keeping a diary is self-discovery, and this entry is a great example of that.

The Mighty 504
|
This entry from a long-time OD member really brings home what it is like to be living in New Orleans four years after Katrina, and what it has been like to be there all the long days since. A truly great example of the power of writing.
