“Aspiring journalers who
are having trouble getting
started will find a trove of
writing and drawing prompts
in this encouraging guide . . .
Neuburger provides graceful,
encouraging instruction,
giving readers the inspiration
and go-ahead to forge their
own creative paths.”
— Publishers Weekly
These 60 interactive writing prompts, observation-based listmaking
activities, and art how-tos spur creative writing and
imaginative self-expression. Every spread offers a new approach
to filling a journal page — from making a visual map of
a day-in-my-life to turning random splotches into quirky characters
for a playful story. Ten sheets of pullout art paper, two
pages of stickers, three sheets of paper punch-outs, and a
chapter on handcrafting a one-of-a-kind journal make this the
perfect launch pad for those seeking to expand their imaginative
voice and journaling skills.
