To set your journal at a level where anyone can read it, click on Your Journal Title (linked there for
your convenience). At the top of the journal page directly underneath your journal's title/name click
on "edit".
Next, a new page should load with a text field for your journal title, a text field for your journal
description and a text field for the body of journal (which should contain nothing by the way, only
when creating a "new entry" should contain actual text). To the right of these text fields should be
two sets of "radio buttons", one for what type of journal (social, historical, general etc) and one for
"journal access". That one will have I believe 7 radio buttons to choose from, numbering 0-6. It
should look like this:
Make sure the level "Zero" is the one chosen like shown here. Hit "Submit" and send a gram to
someone online (if there are any scribes or demis online, they are the best pick as you cannot run
out of grams talking to them) and ask them to please visit your homesite and attempt to read your
journal. If they say they still cannot access your journal (it should still say "you must be a
friend of Sayuri's" if they cannot) then sadly it is a "bug" (site related error) and not you at all.
I say it may be a "bug" because it's a known issue here (ie; it's happened before) that a new
member will create their journal, never change the "zero" level access to a "one" but it will limit
readership regardless. Hopefully that is not the case, if it is it may take a bit of time for the site
admin to fix it.
