Advance Copy of The Complete Decorated Journal is HERE!

It wasn't supposed to get here until March, but today my editor at Lark surprised me with an advance copy of the revised Decorated Page!  It's ahead of schedule, but still won't be in bookstores for a few weeks;  so I thought I'd provide some sneak previews over the next few days.  Since my favorite part of the new edition is the collection of journaler profiles, I will post a few of them here for you to enjoy.  Please excuse the crookedness and inadvertent cropping of the right-hand sides of the pages.  It's really hard to get the entire thing on my flatbed scanner.

I'm following their order in the book, so today's three are Laura Ladendorf, Becca Johnson, and Benedicte Caneill.

    You can go to Amazon.com and search either under "Gwen Diehn" or "The Complete Decorated Journal." Then you can pre-order The Complete Decorated Journal and they will send it to you when the book releases in APril. They have it for a really good price on pre-order.
