You do not have to finish everything that you
write
You can go back and work on unfinished
writing pieces
You can always start something new
Give your best spelling, punctuation and
grammar
I only care that you are writing in it
Pencils are moving, lips are closed

Use it as a space to collect ideas to write
about
Date each page
You should go back and look at what you’ve
written before
You can do anything in there – write, sketch,
make a list – but, you can’t do the same thing
every time
Like a sketchbook in art class

Not everything is going to be your best
writing!
Not a place for rough copies
Not a place for good copies
