During this time, he gave her a diary to practice, telling her that it was "a rare gift, but better than drawing in the sand". Though Jeanne learned how to write in a legible manner quickly, she later became scared of the Brotherhood, to the point of looking forward to being sold, despite being in love with [[Agaté]] at the time.<ref name="ACLib" />

	Following this, Aveline was later given the first page of Jeanne's diary by her father, prompting a search on her part for the other missing ~~volumes~~.		After she was bought by [[Philippe de Grandpré]], and taken with him to [[New Orleans]], Jeanne took the journal with her, pinning it inside of her dress so that she could continue her writing, which would improve greatly over time; the diary pages detailed her unofficial marriage to Philippe and the birth of their daughter [[Aveline de Grandpré]].
