Love this šŸ’™šŸŒ±

I remember getting into hit-record because it reminded me of this creator community online with Johnathan Frakes, hah. Journaling, writing, exploring. Look forward to seeing you around, Joe!

So pleased to see your journal post pop up. Thus I joined Substack. I am an old bird ( 69) who admires your work and you as a human. You gained a million points ( pun intended) when Fallon asked you if you were stranded and had to pick just 1 LP ,you chose Harry Nilsson The Point ! Looking forward to Joe's Journal ; Thank You

My first journal entry that was just for me (not something I had to write for school) was in 1999. I was just starting 9th grade and was writing about a puppy that my parents brought home. I still have every journal I’ve ever written in.

I fell off journaling a number of years back… and then your email showed up as I’m in the cooldown period after an autistic meltdown, so I think you’ve inspired me to actually start writing my thoughts down again by hand. At the very least, I should type them up. But I do have a fondness for the spiral notebooks and comp books. They prime something …. *intention* … when I sit down with one of those and a pen in my hand.

Thank you. And thank you for your habit of showing up when needed most.
