Yes, it does. It's also fun to look back and see what you were doing and thinking at that time in your life!

Depends on how you plan to write your journal entries. But that aside, journals are good for reflection and growth.
If you wanna better your writing, take a writing class or read books on how to write effectively.

I don't know if it makes writing better or not. I have never kept one because it is too convenient for blackmail material.
If you want to make your writing better, try writing a novelette or some short stories. It is too easy for people to find and read your journal and all of your personal and secret thoughts.

It keeps track of time and events, people and places you have been to. I don't know if it makes your writing better but you can see how much you grow and your thoughts change over the years.

i write in a journal/diary every night and I find it helps me write better, and relieve stress because it helps me release my emotions even if I don't want to tell anyone about my person problems.
