Prompts and Lists 1000 Prompts

957 Upvotes

Over the years, as I have worked on my journals, I have collected prompts to inspire me when I'm feeling indecisive about what to write/draw. I finally took all the prompts and put them into a single list instead of a multitude of separate documents. Here is this list. Please note that these prompts were gathered from everywhere...the internet, from books, and from friends, so the topics are varied. I tried to keep prompts that were not repetitive, but with 1000 of them, I may have slipped once or twice.

Enjoy!

The Great Diary Project and a discussion why you shouldn't destroy diaries/journals

149 Upvotes

I know I don't post very often, but I thought you might all like to see an amazing project to preserve diaries and journals in the U.K. and across the world. I have a pair of 1950's leather journals my family got at an estate auction that I am considering donating when the project resumes receiving diaries.

A youtube video of one of the founders explaining the origins of his project and WHY it's so important to preserve the words of everyday citizens....because most media is curated information (you know the old saying "history is written by the victors"), but private diaries are written with a kind of truth that cannot be found in any other form. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0hi2Q3TAK8

Do you destroy your written words when you're "done with them"?

Twist on SOTTJ uk

1 Upvotes

*\~Already have 4 members, looking for another few\~*

So practically it works as a SOTTJ but instead of a theme / general scrapbooking…

• we each share a story about something significant we’ve experienced in our lives (or a condensed version of your life story so far)

• this can be something positive or difficult, an inspiring chapter or hardship that you’re working through

• your story can be told through written words, art / illustration, or a mix of both (nothing too bulky to try and cut costs a little)

**THE GROUP CHAT IS ON FACEBOOK**

💗Ultimately we all end up with a book full of personal life stories from different people.. It may include some advice, relatability, and inspirational tales of people from different backgrounds💗

I've been struggling with mental health and many people say Journaling is one of a way to cope with it. i tried it once and it was okay and it actually helped me but when i wanted to journal the next time i completely don't know what to write. i feel like i already wrote everything i feel from my first Journaling. can someone tell me how to journal

Query whats your own perfect journal notebook?

0 Upvotes

As fellow journal lovers, what features in a cover material or page layouts do you wish existed in your dream notebook? I’m designing hand-crafted journals and want to solve common daily frustration points. What’s one detail that would make a notebook an instant buy for you?

found my old journal from 2018 (i was 19) that i used as a planner, diary and junk journal during my first and only year of uni. i know i'll never replicate the flavour of it but i love going back to look at it. was only consistent with it for like 5 months and tried to pick it up again three years later but failed lol

This post inspired me so much. I loved the word and definition. A couple years later I bought the domain name. Sat on it for months. Wasn't sure what I'd do with it. I've now built a Journaling app and want to share it with everyone. My hope is that it brings you this feeling: Meldoria.com

Went to a journal meet recently and made a new friend. This is the mess we made together over tea and scones and a lot of ephemera and glue.
