diary

Informal record of day-to-day events, observations, or reflections, usually not intended for a general readership. One of the earliest diaries still in existence is that of a Japanese noblewoman, the Kagerō Nikki (954-974), and the earliest known diary in English is that of Edward VI (ruled 1547-53). Notable diaries include those of English writer Samuel Pepys and German Jewish girl Anne Frank.

The English writer John Evelyn, the English Quaker George Fox, and 20th-century French writer André Gide and New Zealand writer Katherine Mansfield were also diarists.
