Start your entry on the next line down. Please include a closing “Fondly,” or “Your Friend, “or “From,” and then go down a line to sign the characters name.
• In Chapter one, if your character does not yet appear in the story than you will just write a summary of what happened in the chapter.
• You can use the character actions, emotions and thoughts graphic organizer to help you.

Chapter 1 Today’s Date
Dear Journal,
Today was a glorious day. I don’t know why, but I had a feeling that something great was going to happen. I took a stroll down to see the beautiful flowers outside of the Cathedral of Notre Dame. Seeing the bright colors of the flowers invigorated my spirit. I could almost hear the chirping of the birds on a sunny spring day. I met a woman named
Anabel. She looked about my age. She was working with the flowers.
She kindly gave me some branches to decorate my buggy. I hope I didn’t make her angry when I took a sprig of holly for my lapel…….
Your friend,
Armand
