ESTHER CHILTON’S WRITING PROMPT

The first thing that comes to mind is school supplies. The teacher creates a list of supplies for her/his students. The prospective students would take their list to the local department store to gather supplies.

My memories are of me and my mom going to Walmart to buy school supplies. The highlight of my list was always the pens and paper. Ah, the look of that new spiral notebook with its freshly blank paper.  Sheets of white with horizontal blue lines to write on with a single red vertical line on the left side for a margin line. I remember I tried to write my best on each side. The most perfect formed letters and the prettiest handwriting I had possible.  This notebook was going to be pretty and neatly organized. That was until notetaking came into the picture. When notetaking, I would somehow get more sloppy with my writing. Still, I have good memories. That’s what matters.

Until Next Time,
