Prompts Index and Information

[Prof. Tarma Amelia Black]

Welcome to Ink Splatters Prompts Index and Information.

We have in here, for your convenience, a link to The Graphics Garden and links to the most recent prompts.

General information
You can earn 20 beans for each prompt completed. To win the coveted Ink Splatters Award, you must complete 7 prompts over a particular school year. This can include any new or past prompts and submissions to The Graphics Garden. You may submit to a prompt more than once -- providing your submission is sufficiently different to your first one it can still count. However you may not complete a particular prompt twice in one year. (You may complete any prompt more than once in a given year, but any subsequent submissions in a given year will not earn credit for the award.) Neither prompts or graphic submissions have a deadline but to count towards an award for a particular school year, they must be completed before the end of the Spring Term of that year.

The Graphics Garden (Sharing Space)
This is where you share any book-related artwork you’ve been working on. Whether it’s an illustration for a piece of your own writing or something that has been inspired by someone else’s story, we’d love to see it!

Prompts
These simply give you a theme or starting point for a creation of yours. New ones are posted every term and you can browse the extensive library of old ones below.
