Is there a simple way to do this? I come here wanting to write in my journal but I always have to go to the forums, click on a thread, then click on reply. It then tells me I am not logged in so I finally get the little window that lets me register and then go back up and click on journals and finally get to my journal. There has got to be a better way to do this. What am I missing? Help!

Go to the top of the forum and check out the sticky in Announcements and Forum Help. It looks as if you need to make some profile changes. You could go into your Journal and bookmark it as a favourite. However, if there is a re-org, you could lose the bookmark. i usually go to mine from the forum by clicking on Member Journals at the top of the page and then on my Journal.
