To try and pass on some of my enthusiasm for Writing It Down - by hand, each day in a diary of your own - I've opened up Diary Corner, to pass on the message, in serious and not so serious ways. Hope you'll enjoy watching.

    Kept a diary for over twenty years. When my daughter was old enough to be interested in my life I began to tell her stories. She corrected me on a few details of things I had not told her yet! Turns out she had found my diaries in the garage when she was 14 and read them all!

    Cue marketing brainstorm: Make a pen that looks like a carrot and sell it to all of the fans of Michael Palin!
    The Diary Corner is brilliant Michael. I will start a diary because of you.

    To quote the Kids in the Hall....
    "My Pen! My Pen!"
    He's bloody got my Pilot Hi-Tecpoint pen. Love those pens. Been using them for YEARS. I knew I loved Michael for a reason.

    Amazing, this was like having a chat with a beloved uncle. I've been meaning to take another stab at keeping a diary, too...

    I've been writing them since 2001 and I still do. MY hubby thinks it's a pointless exercise. But I love it. I look back sometimes and think, "Did I really do/say that!?" or worse, "I don't remember that!".

    I wish I had known about Michael before. I never got to watch the British comedy shows in high school. Very happy stuff❤

    Thanks Michael Palin! Big Fan. I'm and artist and been keeping a diary for 10 years now. I write notes in a small pocket-notepad throughout the day, then before I go to bed I write a few pages. I find it relieves anxiety and hastens falling asleep.

    You’re a legend Sir Michael Palin. So inspiring.
    Along with David Walliams, Henry Rollins and Trent Reznor, you are one of my heroes. Keep up the great work. :)

    I think that's such a great idea! I wish I wouldn't be so freaking lazy and could actually keep a diary for the rest of my life...I mean, imagine how cool that is! I could go back to every day of my past and look up what I did then and there, it's just amazing! I just turned 18, so it may even make sense to start this year.
    Actually, if I think about it, it's not even that difficult. It doesn't have to be much, just a small note of what I've done that day, that's good enough.
    And I thought about keeping a digital diary on my computer but now I see, it's much better to buy a notebook or whatever and keep it handwritten. It's more personal and I can finally use my fountain pen again, haha!
    So, thanks Michael Palin, you inspire me to do that and to stick to it :)

      Hello from 7 years later! Hope you were able to stick with your writing! I too just started mine a few days before my 18th birthday, and am already so excited seeing my days written across pages. I hope I’m able to continue and not give up in the future. Hope you are well!

      @@leahparmelee5378 I was just about to leave much the same comment before I saw yours! I also first attempted a diary not long after turning 18. Isn't it interesting how that seems to happen? I suppose becoming an ADULT (that most terrifying development) makes one really consider the passage of time and the narrative of one's life for the first time. I hope you're keeping up your diary too, but don't be discouraged if not. My diary keeping was very irregular until I finally managed to keep it consistently from the ripe old age of 25. I hope you're well!

    Listening to MP on the radio and I’ve lost interest. I loved it when I was watching a documentary/bio on someone and there’s Michael in the foreground with the world’s enormous poster displaying.....His Diaries! Can’t get away fro them.
