On Monday, I posted the blank version of the tenth prompt in the Big Pink Book, which had themes of joy and happiness. Of course, I had to take it in a different direction. A while back, I wrote a drabble titled “Tarot Esoterica: The Black Lagoon,” which appeared in This Book Has Ghosts in It. […]

This week’s prompt from the Big Pink Book is a mostly open page with four stickers, one at each corner. Clockwise from the upper left, they are: A card from the Winnie the Pooh tarot deck corresponding to a card that isn’t found in any other deck that I’ve encountered. Its meaning is joy or […]

On Monday, I posted the blank version of this page, and today, I’m back to show you how I used it. The first thing I did was to mark the text, “When it rains, look for rainbows. When it’s dark, look for stars,” to flip the elements, making it “When it rains, look for stars. […]

The next prompt in the Big Pink Book has a handful of small stickers, some washi tape, and a bit of text. The text reads “When it rains, look for rainbows. When it’s dark, look for stars.” The small stickers include three gold stars below the text. At the top left, there’s a Winnie the […]

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 […]
