On Monday, I posted the eighth prompt from the Big Pink Book, which had some zen-like vibes. Rather than use those vibes to write fiction, I used this page to think a little bit about balancing the various demands on my time. This was likely because I worked on it after having participated in the […]

The eighth page of the Big Pink Book has some zen-like vibes. There are mandalas at the top left and bottom right corners, one in pink and gold and the other in black and white. At the top right is a cartoon frog doing yoga, and at the bottom left is a gold flower with […]

I’m back today with how I used prompt 7 in the Big Pink Book, which had four stickers that presented a weird combination. I used them to write a drabble, interpreting the stickers as futuristic warning symbols indicating atmospheric and other dangers! This page shows you some insight into both my drafting and revision processes. […]

Prompt 7 in the Big Pink Book is a little weird (and so is my photo of it, which cuts off the top of the page that has the number!). There are four stickers (technically five, but who’s counting?) in a vertical line. At the top, there’s a square sticker depicting a blue eye with […]

For the sixth prompt in my Big Pink Book, I decided to use the fantasy imagery, particularly the unicorn, to write some poetry. At the top of the page, I wrote seven lines of what amounted to vaguely iambic pentameter (it’s not perfect, but it’s in that ballpark). And none of the lines rhymed, though […]

The sixth prompt in the Big Pink Book is a mostly blank page. The stickers are an empty thought bubble with a green border at the top right, and a row of stickers across the bottom of the page. From left to right, they’re a rectangular sticker with a photorealistic blue sky and pink-ish clouds […]

So this prompt page wound up with me writing a lot of tiny notes, and it’s kind of a mess, honestly. Instead of trying to transcribe it, I’ll summarize what I’ve got. 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 […]

The next prompt in the Big Pink Book is another page with loads of room for writing. It has a small round sticker at top left that says “Here” (glittery yellow with purple text), a string of black and gold papel picado (perforated paper flags often seen at Day of the Dead events), and a […]

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 […]

The next prompt in the Big Pink Book is a simple page with a single, larger sticker that depicts books (four stacked, one open, some plant clippings, and a purple liquid in a corked bottle. Of the books in the stack, only two have titles showing. The higher one is The Hymn of Transformation, while the […]
