How to maintain a secret diary

navySea3717 March 14th, 2023

I want to write in a secret diary by hand, but it's hard to keep it hidden from my family. I don't like digital diaries and locked diaries are not in my budget... guys please suggest if you have any ideas!✨😅

@navySea3717 I suppose you will need a book with blank pages to write on, but it must not say My Diary on the front. One way might be to get a very cheap and boring book that no one will want to look inside (maybe from a charity bookshop), then cut out the book's pages one by one as you add your diary pages. I have no idea whether this will work, but it's all I can think of 🤔

@navySea3717 buy a small padlock or a digital diary on your phone with a code it's free :)

You could write small sections or important parts of your diary entries in a code that you create, like symbols, numbers, replacing letters with other letters... anything! Or you could try invisible ink that looks invisible to the naked eye but can be activated by heat or UV (Ultraviolet) light.

Hope this helps. Good luck! :)

Conceling the journal cover with a boring book cover seems the best.

You might also use a spiral notebook and write on the cover some boring title like "Tax Laws for the state of Nevada" or "2019 Inventory"

You can combine 2 or three of those, for extra protection.

Good luck with your Personal Journal!
