The Journal Project

Hi there! My name is Emily. On this blog, my plan is to post a journal entry every day from a list of journal prompts. I will pick the prompt from a jar that has 731 prompts written out on slips of paper. I will post the journal prompt at the beginning of the day and try to complete it by the end of the day! Feel free to submit your own entries, too! I'll probably post other writing related or book related things too :3

Stories do not change the world. I’ve learned that. But perhaps in some secret, subtle way… I mean it’s not the world I want to change.

Sometimes you read a book so special that you want to carry it around with you for months after you’ve finished just to stay near it.

Well, this is quite helpful. Here you are.

A new vending machine has been released which can print any book within minutes. The Espresso Book Machine has access to 500,000 different books - the same as 23.6 miles of shelf space - and can even churn out a fresh copy of Crime and Punishment in just nine minutes. Pages are printed at a rate of over 100 per minute and are then pressed, glued and cut to produce a pristine book. Users simply pick the book they would like on a screen and wait for it to be printed … it certainly is a novel way of getting a new book.

This would reduce so much unwanted book waste, you guys… this is brilliant.  This is the future.

Entry Twelve

Prompt #48

What extinct animal would you bring back if you could?

Status: Complete

                     I know this is super late and I apologize. These past few days have been busy for me but I am no starting the prompts back up again. I love to bring back some animal that had a great purpose in the ecosystem or habitat that it lived in or that bettered the environment in some way but honestly, I can't think of any right now. So I would bring back the majestic dodo bird. That's right. The dodo bird. Poor little guys didn't even get a fighting chance. They were all killed off pretty quickly. I would love to have one as a pet. I would coddle him and give a funny name like Mr. Muffintop or something along those lines. That would just be fantastic. 

                                                                        Yours,

                                                                         Emily~
