    I Didn’t Mean to Make a Journal, But This One Wouldn’t Stay Quiet

    I didn’t sit down to make a journal… I sat down to catch my breath.

    But something whispered. And then whisper-shouted. And then sassily refused to be quiet! until I followed through.

    What came out is called Your Echoes: A Resonance Journal.

    I know what you’re thinking: ”Not another journal.” Believe me, I thought the same thing. I’ve tried traditional journaling. I hated it. I don’t like prompts. I don’t want to be told how to feel, or shamed into writing every day. That kind of structure never worked for my neurospicy brain, it felt performative, not personal to me.

    So I made something else… Something softer. Stranger. Quieter. It’s lightly lined, like a notebook, but every page holds just one sentence:

    “A whisper or a sass is still a voice.”

    That’s it. No rules. No instructions. Just breath and space.

    It’s not the first book I intended to publish. In fact, it was the last one grudgingly on the list. But after a week that broke something open in me, this was the one I could finish. The one that offered an easy win and a kind place to land.

    And now it exists. 

    A gentle rebel in 8.5" x 8.5" form, not a typical size, but that’s the point. I chose square because it doesn’t fall in line. It doesn’t feel like school. It doesn’t feel like an office supply. It feels like a keepsake. Like something meant to be held close, kept beside your tea, your altar, your laptop, your bed.

    It’s wide enough to give your thoughts room, but not so tall it feels performative or demanding. It invites scribbles. Sideways thoughts. Lists that turn into laments that turn into laughter. This size isn’t just aesthetic. It’s emotional architecture.

    It’s designed to be a companion to the Inked Whispers & Sass books (those are still whisper-shouting for their turn), but this one? It can stand alone. It already does.

    📘 Your Echoes: A Resonance Journal is now available on Amazon.

    If you’re not a traditional journaler either, if you’ve ever felt too much or nothing at all and needed space to just be, this might be yours, too.
