After You: Journal

After You is a diary for people who miss the feeling of writing. Sit down at your table and open this year's diary. You're on today's page: no list to get through, no title to think of, no prompts or streaks. A DIARY ON A TABLE The room follows the time of day: morning sun through the window, the lamp on in the evening, stars at night. A desk calendar shows today. Older years stand at the back of the table, ready to read. PAGES THAT TURN Each day has one page, with a printed date and ruled lines. Swipe to turn, tap a month tab, follow the ribbon back to today, or tap the date for a calendar of the days you wrote. INK THAT DRIES New letters go on bright blue and settle to blue-black, the way fountain pen ink does. SPEAK, OR TUCK IN A PHOTO Hold the page and choose Speak here: your words appear as you talk, with your voice kept above them. Or tuck in a photo: it's taped onto the page, and lifts into your hand when you tap it. MONTHS AND YEARS, KEPT When a month ends, a quiet page looks back on it with a few of your own lines. When a year ends, its diary joins the others on the table.
