Each new day is a blank page in the diary of your life. The secret of success is in turning that diary into the best story you possibly can.

  Fennel’s Journal chronicles the adventures of Nigel Hudson as he discovers and explores a place of quiet reflection known as the Priory.
It was originally produced as a series of handwritten letters sent to Nigel’s closest associates, who became known as
the Friends of the Priory. The first letter
was sent in January 2006, with monthly
letters sent thereafter.

The Journal’s intention is simple - to share experiences with people of a similar mindset, who understand the beauty of the natural
world and crave a slower and more peaceful pace of life.

The launch of fennelspriory.com in January 2011 saw the Friends of the Priory grow in number and demand for the handwritten journals increase. The Journals are now available in magazine format. Each edition
is limited to 600 copies, of which the first
100 are signed by Nigel and embossed
with the Priory logo.
