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 […]

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 […]

The third prompt in the Big Pink Book is another list-making prompt, this time themed around some puns and an intro of “It’s funny.” The puns, in the stickers to the right, are: “You are deer to me,” “Love you a latte!,” “That’s bananas” (with the bananas as an image), “No Prob-llama,” and “Donut worry.

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 […]

The second prompt in the Big Pink Book is simple enough–the line of dots (washi tape) make it perfect for making a list. And the “We go together like …” suggests that it can be for things that go together. The sticker at the bottom involves some concentric circles and dots that reminds me of […]

The first prompt in the Big Pink Book isn’t entirely a writing prompt. It consists of a blank page and a unmarked map (though the version above has my markings on it). I used these two pages for some reflections on my writing journey. I labeled the blank page with “My Map: my journey as […]

Back in November 2024, I snagged a thick, hot pink, wire-bound notebook. Since then, I’ve added scrapbook paper, stickers, washi tape, and other random ephemera to the pages. I also numbered all of the pages, each of which has some sort of theme. Some of the themes are very clear, while others just have a […]
