so props to you for even starting one.

it was an easy read btw, it seems it comes from a personal view and taste not like some reviews ive read that seem to be like frustrated music critics.. not to be a dick or anything, but i don't need to know every *****n detail in the recording process, and stats & facts you could get off wikipedia.

So says 'Me' the guy that never made a journal. U_U

lolol

Oi! Is that aimed at me???

Seriously, do NOT worry about what people will say if you start a journal. Chances are you'll get a few comments at first then it could very well dry up, comments-wise, unless it's totally brilliant. The important thing is just to write the best reviews/sections/reports/whatever you can, if necessarily only for you then for you: enjoy it, and if people see this in your writing they'll most likely enjoy it too.

I'm in the third year of writing my journal and I can tell you there have only really been a handful of comments, other than Unknown Soldier's almost regular posts. I dont let it bother me: I continue to write as I know I can, and watch the view count go up so I know people are at least reading if not commenting.

You shouldn't shy away from having a stab at a journal if you're interested in it. It's not that hard --- there are after all no real rules --- and it's a thoroughly rewarding experience, even if it can seem like a thankless task at times. You just need to set your frame of mind up properly.
