Journal
Abby has kept a journal since just before fourth-grade. The novels contain traditional third-person writing intermixed with portions of Abby's journal written in the first person. Since Abby's favorite color is Purple, she writes in Purple ink. In "Everything New Under The Sun", Abby informs her readers how she ran out of her signature purple ink and how that won't affect her love for writing. She adds calendar quotes to almost every entry, even some that she made up. Abby loves to write, especially in her journal and wants to become an author.

Famous quotes containing the word journal:
“The writer in me can look as far as an African-American woman and stop. Often that writer looks through the African-American woman. Race is a layer of being, but not a culmination.”
—Thylias Moss, African American poet. As quoted in the Wall Street Journal (May 12, 1994)
“What the Journal posits is not the tragic question, the Madman’s question: “Who am I?”, but the comic question, the Bewildered Man’s question: “Am I?” A comic—a comedian, that’s what the Journal keeper is.”
—Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
“After the writer’s death, reading his journal is like receiving a long letter.”
—Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
