No, a journal is not a type of fiction. A journal is a personal record of thoughts, experiences, and reflections, typically written by an individual for themselves. Fiction, on the other hand, refers to literature created from the imagination, including novels, short stories, and plays.

A Journal is generally regarded as a piece of writing covering facts presented in a sequential manner: say, a diary entry. But, a journal may also be used a medium for fiction, as in Margaret Atwood's "Handmaid's Tale" in which the story is written as if it is the journal of Offred, the narrator.
