Journal drafts are still available in their previous home in Profile > Posts > and selecting "Drafts" from the dropdown. Schedule Journals As with other types of content, you can now schedule journal drafts through your Studio. Simply go to Drafts > Journals > Click the “...” on the far right of the draft > Select "Schedule," and set your preferred publish time.

Literature

Leap Day (NaPo 30)

Dark curls springing to a velvet walk As her caramel voice wraps my tongue In the sweetest silence. A connecting train sweeping me up Pulling away from Lonely Station Without even a note or postcard left To tell the old me where I've gone. The heaviest thing I'm traveling with Is the smile that can barely lift my eyes. Would you stay when the light fades And the terrors shake me awake? Is there a hope that my hand you'd still hold In the moments where minutes turn to hours? Teardrops taste like candy when I'm with you, But I've cried a Wonka river And smell like a bitter, desert floor, Cracked and hard as sun-baked nougat. Who am I kidding, adjusting my Lancelot collar, Thinking that I could find a blade That would carve this stone out of my chest? Just let me sit and sew myself back up And I promise I'll be scarce like February 29th.
