August Journaling for Beginners
You might be a lifelong writer or just starting out with your first notebook, but either way it is always nice to have some fresh ideas!
Here is a fun, creative journaling kit I recommend from the brand Feela. It comes with a sturdy cover with multiple color options, 220+ pages, and craft supplies (colored pens, stickers, washi tape, and more) Click here to see the product on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3A2Mma8
August Writing Prompts
Okay so now that you are ready to start writing with your new notebook, let’s jump into this list!
- What was your favorite memory of the Summer?
- What is an activity you hope to do this month?
- Share a new experience you tried
- Did you develop any new friendships or relationships?
- Write about a new recipe you cooked/ baked and received from a loved one
- What made this summer different from past ones?
- Do you have any goals for the month of August?
- Are you going back to school? What are you looking forward to?
- Share about any transitions you are going through (school, career, moving, etc.)
- Write about a favorite memory from a past August
- Did you do any gardening? What did you grow?
- If you grew herbs, vegetables, and/or fruit, how did you enjoy them with a meal?
- Where did you travel to this summer, or where will you be going this month?
- What books, movies, tv shows, or music do you want to check out?
- Brainstorming- simply write anything that comes to mind that you would like to express and put from pen to paper.

August Bullet Journal
Have you ever heard of bullet journaling?
That is another way to write in a notebook that is a bit more structured, but everyone does it a little bit differently.
Here is the notebook from the brand Bullet Journal that I have personally used for years! It comes with 200+ pages that have dots instead of traditional lines, and comes with 3 built in ribbon bookmarks. Click here to view the color options on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3LGSTts
So with bullet journaling, it is a great space to plan out your goals (both big and small) and track your progress.
I tend to use this notebook for personal habit tracking or keeping notes for hobbies I enjoy.
Now to clarify this doesn’t mean it needs to be regimented, difficult journaling.
It is still a place to be creative, use lots of colors or stickers, doodling images, or including inspirational pictures.
Writing Examples:
- How many books would you like to read?
- Movies you hope to watch
- Exercising or stretching every day for the month of August
- Meal planning
- Mood / Emotions tracker
- Weather changes
- Financial goals
- Homework / Studying plan
- Activities with family
