# Creating a journal

Journals can contain entries and can be a useful way to organize entries into different topic areas. To create a new journal, use the "New Journal" menu item in the File menu. MacJournal will ask you what you want to name the journal. You can also choose where you want the journal to be using the pop-up menu under the name. After that, press the "Create" button and MacJournal will create the journal and select it. After that, you can create a new entry or move other entries into it.
