I don't use a classic dream journal, only write down lucid dreams in as much detail as possible. But to improve my recall I always try to remember any dreams or dream fragments upon waking up and revisit these memories throughout the day, and I practice meditation almost daily. This has presumably led to a couple of spontaneous lucids recently.

Reading your introduction thread many of your LDing goals seem quite familiar to me, especially the part about the "child-like sense of curiosity and wonder". I've indeed used almost exactly the same words elsewhere to describe the benefits of lucid dreaming. It's absolutely amazing that we're even able to experience something like this.

What sparked your interest in LDing and how was your first lucid?
Wow thats some impressive recall to me XD I only remembered 1 fragment last night. I'm sure its going to get better when I stop consuming marijuana so close to bedtime.

Originally what sparked my interest was the idea of being able to control your dreams to do anything. I was in high school when I first found out about it. I was bored living the same thing every day of going to school, playing video games, doing homework so I thought my dreams could be a fantastic 'escape' from daily life. I wanted to fly, fight armies and obviously have sex

The earliest lucid I remember I was having some trouble flying, but after a few tries I finally got it. I flew around and came across some bad guys invading the city so I kind of turned into spiderman and swung around the city to help kill them all. I dont remember much detail though. I hope to be at that level of LDing again very soon

I also meditate daily! I started in october last year and missed 2 days before january. I made a resolution to meditate every day of 2020 and I havent missed a day yet! It's only been a month but I'm very optimistic!
I'll try and revisit my dreams throughout the day, that seem like it would be veyr effective at increasing recall!
