Science & Imagination:
Exploring WORDS in Your Nature Journal
8 actionable tips to add to your Nature Journaling toolkit, from the Nature Journal Club’s “Writing Workshop Wednesdays”
“For me, writing is an act of reciprocity with the world; it is what I can give back in return for everything that has been given to me.”
– Robin Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass
If you've ever felt intimidated by the pretty pictures in others' nature journals, that's OK!
You can use WORDS in your nature journal to do things that pictures can't!
Learn how to tell the stories only you can, of the places you care about and your relationship to them.

1) Start with a sense of wonder
2) Think like a scientist
3) Travel though time
4) Interview a creature
5) Connect with your audience
6) The grammar of animacy

Happy Nature Journaling!
