Mark, I guess I am not adding an additional date field, just set the date of new journal tiddlers to "YYYY MMM DDth."
Eric, I ended up trying <<list-links [tag[Journal]!sort[created]]>> Which works, except for some reason June is below the rest! Feb-May is in order from newest on top to oldest on the bottom, but June is below everything else? thanks you both for your help! I didn't find a syntax guide (that I understood) for adding filters, so thanks for that too.
