    I select a general time to work on my jjjanuary- Late afternoon. I have a look at the next day’s prompt so that I can have it simmer in my mind. I feel more prepared that way. I will be collecting my materials as you suggested Meg. I think that will help. I often peter out around week 3, put it away and return to it a month later to finish the prompts. But this challenge I plan to push myself and complete it during January.

    Junk Journal July 2023 was my first time joining. I knew I couldn't do every this daily so I planned to do 2-3 a day when I could. For JJ January 2024 , I am making a list of the prompts and the first ideas that come to mind. I see a few that will be completed on the same page.
