Jim’s Cafe - Wednesday, March 11, 2026

[Citizen Insane]

Heya all @ SF, a bit of late night writing here.

Today’s Jim’s Cafe (or for the next few days) is going to be about:

Shamelessly promoting any of your own offline writings! Yes, we’re running out of ideas… <(^_^<) !

Just share anything you want, could even be something as silly as a grocery shopping list you made haha or what’s on your fridge or tiny notes you’ve made!
​

I decided to share this as I’ve been writing / journaling quite a bit recently, it does me quite well… :



More diary stuff & writing:

Due to privacy reasons I won't be sharing it but this is a cool start to Jim's cafe! I do like your writing , felt very professional to me. Thankyou for the tag 💚

Thank you for opening the cafe @Citizen Insane and also for the tag

I might post something more clear later. It was hard to write on this glittery translucent paper, go figure.

 

[AmberMarie]

Thank you for opening and the tag @Citizen Insane
What a really need Cafe idea. It's often difficult to share what has been written...

For me... i have a few things on my board to be a constant reminder:
*i do Not need to fit my body into clothes. They are meant to fit me.
*Find the value in the difficult.

[FFurry]

Thanks for opening @Citizen Insane ! I write rather little and my chicken scratch tends to be tough to read, especially compared to your penmanship! 😂

 

[JMG]

Cool cafe, thank you for posting it Citizen Insane, and also for tagging me. I will check who you tagged again after, and tag anyone else who is fairly likely to reply

I have written various things over the last day and week. I wrote various positive/encouraging words to myself on my glass board thing in my room yesterday, and also this poem about my kitty (it’s a haiku lol) :p

Sweet kitty (03.11.26)
I love my kitty
She is so loving and sweet
A purr-fect angel

Some more tags: @Baywasp @Mid Night @Kiwi2016 @Innocent Forever @AvidFan @puffymilk

Ok those are all I can think of. Also, love the pics and writing people posted, it’s all great

Thanks for the cafe. Shamefully I barely ever write with a pen these days. Even do my shopping list on a notepad app on my phone. I did jot some numbers down yesterday while trying to figure out how to beat the supermarket on a threshold spend (buy just enough stuff in advance I'd buy anyway, and get the money off, without just buying stuff I don't need!). If I find anything lying around I'll try to snap it. I did write a handwritten letter to an old friend at Christmas - I had not heard from them for years and think I said some horrible things during a meltdown during lockdown. I didn't get a response but it felt important to put the effort in and hand write it. Used to write so many letters before email and internet!

Thanks for the tag and opening @Citizen Insane. I was thinking about it and realized that I dont write much. At work I write down the names of newborn babies each day along with their policy # to be added into the system. As a young teenager we used to write eachother long notes with funny pictures and code names for boys we liked. It would be fun to reread all those notes.

I don't write anymore - even a journal. My art is photographs and art. Here is a picture that I purchased for $2 for a card.

Yes I wanted to post a cafe but i ran out of ideas.

I will share my satirical humour blog post about floor therapy

@Citizen Insane Nicely written, and I like your paper. : ) I use grid paper for all my journals, notes and some of my sketchbooks. The grid is handy when I want to scale up a drawing.

I write back and forth to my offspring via online apps. I keep a paper journal of my mileage, and my walks and strength workouts.

I write shopping lists on scrap paper ripped from junk mail envelopes or old tea packages.

I've always been a bit obsessed with pens, ink, pencils, brushes, and paper, and paint of course. As for writing: It's satisfying when words flow smoothly, and at least get across the kernel of thought or feeling that's bouncing around my mind. I was planning on writing and illustrating a book series with my brother - now it's on the back burner, because he passed away.

Here are a few of my favourites:

I have never done any type of real writing, but reading is one of my favorites. It is fun to read what others come up with and the creativity being employed.

Thank you for the tag @JMG and opening @Citizen Insane.

I journal but have always wanted to write perhaps short stories but have never have figured out how to begin.

Yo yo @Citizen Insane . You got cool handwriting.

I have been MIA as I locked myself in my bathroom for a month and been working on my screenplay . It appears to have no readers since no comments but the web host has warned me I have to upgrade because the server is not handling the traffic..

My bathroom smells really bad though.
