Reads like The Colour Purple- and that won a prize.

Nice work.

It's Jens', not Jen's. :3

She spelt it wrong, is da' point.

The thing I find odd is that she has perfect grammar and punctuation, but she still knocks letters off and replace them with ', as if it's an audio log.

But other than that it was cool.

Why thank you Mack... Though I'mma review it and try to add spelling mistakes on purpose.

Had fun reading it! Keep up the work, ill be sure to check up on it every once in a while!

I hadn't actually noticed this diary until recently.

Bit late, but, eh, i really liked the entries. Especially the doodles. Hate to see the diary lapse though. As in lapse in entries...as stopping adding them :<

Just read it.. Why does she speak like a northerner who stops and starts on the most stupid of places. You should put less of that, it makes her sound too Yorkshirish.

I wen' ta' th'bar an' saw tha' there wer' som' real' nice g' uy 's

because its a diary, not an audio log.

She misspells things and doesn't write all that well.

I know, but mispelling doesn't warrant an apostrophe, and the short stopping of sentences much akin to an odd accent.

This is a Kazuth girl with no education. She probably picked up somewhere you can just bang apostrophoes in where ever you like as opposed to vowels.

Of course, but you'd have to be kind of odd, if you know how to speak it, and not realise that something's wrong when you don't put a letter of the alphabet after another.

mispeling words is a hole difernt issew to having a silly kayn redwel acent.

The apostrophes serve as an indication of spoken ideolect, nothing to do with spelling. I'm not criticising, but I'm just saying Jack's got a point.
