Journal #5
This past week I was on vacation, and I started the composition book thing sort of. What I mean by that is that I created the book cover and started brainstorming a couple ideas about what I would write for the first few pages. So far I am writing about a teenager that's a senior in high school and plays football. But his only problem is the people that he hangs around, who are basically gang members that smoke weed. He is struggling throughout the book trying to find out what will make him successful and how to survive in high school life. This is what the theme of the book is for it so far. Hopefully this weekend I can come up with some actual pages. Maybe I can even start the first few pages.

Journal #3
I am on day 3 of this 20time thing it's getting pretty frustrating but I think I might finally have an idea. I am thinking about creating a book about a young student athlete who grows up around all of the high school troubles (gang problems, girls, grades, friends, bullies, drugs, etc.) who's goal is to make it to college. I am still brainstorming ideas but this is what I have so far. I also need somewhere to write it. I was thinking about just buying a composition book and making a cover out of printer paper over it. Or just make it seem like it's a journal by keeping it the way I bought it. I'm not completely sure yet but this is definitely on the list of possibilities on what I can do
Journal #4
I think that I have my final 20 time project idea. I am going to create a story using a composition book so it could look like the journal of my "main character." This is a very broad description of what I am planning to do, but this is definitely my decision. My time frame is to be by the end of March, if I have that much time. I don't have a mentor because I don't really need one to write a book, but this is what I'll do. Hopefully I can start within the next few days or so.
