Writing Journal?

[darkauthor26]

I've been thinking about getting a writing journal. I wasn't really sure how I'd be using this journal when I first made it or how much fanfic I'd be posting up here, but it's apparent to me now that I'm going to be...ah...posting rather a lot of fanfics, and I plan on getting some more original writing up here eventually, too. I know some of you guys have writing journals (and even if you don't, I value your opinion), and I was wondering would you recommending getting one? And if you do, would you recommend getting a seperate account or creating a community for a writing journal like I've seen some people do?
