# A journal for the questions that arrive in the middle.

_No prompts, no scoring, no "here's what successful people journal about."_

There is a kind of writing one needs to do somewhere in the forties, fifties, sixties — about work, about parenthood, about the people we have stopped being.

The Sealed Journal is a private place for that writing. Yours, locked, offline.

## Questions

### Is this aimed at any particular age?

No, though a lot of people arrive at it around the point where the unsaid things have accumulated for a couple of decades.

### Do I have to keep a record of it all?

No. Writing without an archive is the intended mode; the value is in finishing the sentence, not filing it.

### Can I write things I would not say out loud?

That is precisely what a page with no future reader is for.
