A Year of Story

A Year of Story is a set of printable journal prompts to help you write letters to your child, your love and yourself. Write the stories you want leave as a legacy.

This project includes enough journal prompts to write two or more per month, varying with each mini book. (These projects do not include daily journal prompts).

Letters to my Child: includes 28 journal prompts
Letters to my Love: includes 24 journal prompts
Letters to Myself: includes 26 journal prompts

OVERVIEW

✏ The idea for this project came from my desire to move beyond the photos I scrapbook and tell the stories I want my family to hear.

✏ If you were gone today, what stories would you want your family and friends to know? When I hear of parents dying while their kids are young I am reminded what a treasure a journal like this would be.

FORMAT

✏ This listing is for all three sets of journal prompts.

✏ Three PDF files: each includes 4x6-sized pages (you cut along the printed lines) on 8.5x11 pages.

✏ Undated pages, so start whenever you want.

EXAMPLES

Respond to prompts like:
✏ If I could teach you one thing,
✏ what I have learned as a parent and
✏ 3 things I like about you.

BINDING

✏ You could wait to bind the book until you have photos to pair with what you write.

✏ You could have the pages wirebound, or punch holes in it and use binder rings, or use a simple clip.
