My 2024 Reading Journal Project
Reading journals are in my blood. From being forced to keep a journal as a kid, to becoming an English teacher and learning that processing our reading through book clubs and logs helps us remember our reading more, I love keeping track of my reading. I successfully kept a journal for about 6 years, but I fell out of practice in 2020 because… well, 2020.
I yearn for the Instagram-worthy…

I’ve been treating my journal like a podcast where I just keep rambling while doing things that give me anxiety. Getting the anxieties out right away and feels like I have some emotional support there even tho it’s just me & my journal. Sure it takes a bit longer bc u’re basically doing 2 things, but at least something’s getting done u know?

L'APPEL DU VIDE
okay so. jack! jack. what a collection of guys. the overlap between jack and the beanstalk and jack the giant killer, though. that sure is something! sometimes king arthur is there, which always takes me by surprise.
this. specifically. is an idea I've been kicking around. jack and the beanstalk is not a story I've ever enjoyed, as a kid it was probably my least favorite to read. as an adult, I was INTENSELY fascinated by reading j.g. ballard's the drowned giant. I think about it frequently, and somewhere during a re read of it, I ended up revisiting jack.
combining different versions of jack into one character is not a new concept, but it IS a fun one! the version I've been assembling together plays less with the fun elements of a jack story (and adjacent folklore stories), and focuses more on the potential for tragic elements with the addition of the usual grim and jagged narrative edges that I personally enjoy.
jack with the backstory of the devil and the three golden hairs, only jack doesn't find love, he's TIRED, all he wants to do is go home, but there isn't a home to go back to. what is the point of being born lucky if this is what it gets you? jack the giant killer, only he doesn't want to kill giants, jack who saw a body of a giant when he was a small child and cannot bring himself to do as a king commands. jack, who climbs up the beanstalk and stops halfway to look down. etc.
to go back to the drowned giant real quick, both to set the tone about jack seeing the body of a giant as a youth, and also because I've been haunted and obsessed with this excerpt of it ever since I read it:
J. G. Ballard, The Drowned Giant
anyway! this was originally like, a two illustration concept to get out of my system. however. I'm halfway through outlining a narrative. so. maybe it will also be several illustrations and also comic.

keep track of most common suit that appears in your readings throughout certain amount of time (days, weeks, months)
observe the most common numbers, colors, cards and symbols that appear in your readings. this can point to a message you're not understanding
pull a card for each day of the week for a forecast, then document at the end of the week if it was accurate

I wanna talk today. I wanna develop my potential ship with Miss Pauling some more 🥺💖💖
It's lowkey because I think it'd be really funny that scout is my brother and has been trying to get with her for YEARS and also potentially slightly angsty since we've always been so close and that might cause a rift/rivalry between us but also?? She's just so CUTE, I really wanna reread the comics because she's soooo so precious in them 🥺💘💘💘💘
LOOK AT HER IN HER LITTLE DUNGEON MASTER GETUP FROM ONE OF THE HALLOWEEN COMICS😭😭

may reading journal || Sorry, I'm a Fake Fan -- May Reading Journal Walkthrough
of course, I had to continue my trend for Star Wars themes in May. This time the newest Ahsoka trailer inspired me— especially with all the Star Wars Rebels characters!
Plus, I needed an excuse to use my new gelly roll pens.

I think it's a really cool character choice that while Luz is shown to be the more impulsive one, Amity is the one who's initiated all the big milestones in their relationship—she kissed Luz first both times, and she was the one who asked Luz out in KKKOHD—and someone who's not as sleep deprived and over caffeinated as me could probably write some cool meta about that
