  5. Sample Character Diary Entry Chapter 1 Today’s Date Dear Journal, Today was a glorious day. I don’t know why, but I had a feeling that something great was going to happen. I took a stroll down to see the beautiful flowers outside of the Cathedral of Notre Dame. Seeing the bright colors of the flowers invigorated my spirit. I could almost hear the chirping of the birds on a sunny spring day. I met a woman named Anabel. She looked about my age. She was working with the flowers. She kindly gave me some branches to decorate my buggy. I hope I didn’t make her angry when I took a sprig of holly for my lapel……. Your friend, Armand
