If you've got org-log-into-drawer set to a non-nil value, the drawer should be created automatically for you the first time you take a note on the heading (org-add-note), or switch TODO states in such a way that records a state-change note. Those are the two purposes of the LOGBOOK drawer, so you might as well use one or the other to create the drawer. HTH, Eric
