Everyday I Write the Book

OK, I'm a bit behind in my undertaking of the second part of first module, but I'm off and running.
I am without the Reader, so I've surfed the net, and already begun to piece together an understanding of Reflective Practice.
Tomorrow I start my journal. I may back-date it a few days. I was involved in a couple of events, that made me question my motives, ethical practice, and  the affect on others.
I am generally a reflective person (sometimes to my detriment) but I think all actors are. To understand a character we must first understand ourselves.
There are many reasons for writing a journal. The two that initially resonate with me are from David Boud and Jenny Moon.
Boud states one reason as "a form of therapy."
Boud, D. (2001). Using journal writing to enhance reflective practice.
And
"To enhance creativity by making better use of intuitive understanding."

Using journals in learning through reflection, Jenny Moon
(1999a)

Well, this may all change when I put pen to paper. I'm curious to see what happens.
