First off, I identified the flags as papel picado, because I hadn’t known their actual name before. They’re connected to the Day of […]

On Monday, I shared the blank version of this page, and today, you get to see what I did with it! Here’s what my notes say: Hymnal of Transformation (with an arrow pointing to the books) music as magic = lyramancy RyA theme -> predicament what if you have to finish a hymn if you […]

Time to share what I did with prompt 3 from the Big Pink Book! I’m not much of a puns person, so I took the “It’s funny” prompt and came up with some first sentences connected to that. Even though there were 20 dots on the page, I only wrote 10 sentences, since some took […]

This list is very themed toward summertime and very normal. But it could be interesting to think about what this modern world […]

As promised, here’s my version of the second prompt from the Big Pink Book! I numbered the washi tape dots from 1 through 20, but I also made two columns. The left-hand column is genres, and the right-hand column is locations. I also added an extra sticker to this page–a d20 that looks like a […]

While I was looking for May 2026 writing prompts, I came across the Every Other Friday challenge from ArtOfNelya. This is generally an art challenge, but these phrases are evocative and would also make great writing prompts! Though we’re already a third of the way through the year, I’m adding the whole list here. You […]

It’s May 1st, so it’s time for the May 2026 writing prompts! This month, as always, we start off our list with the official MerMay 2026 prompts. There are a few this year that are geared very much toward an art style, but I think they’re still viable as writing prompts. The second column is […]
