How it works

The Cameo Journal is collaborative, but you have the most important role. Your job is to choose the authors and to give them guidance.

-

Optional: Choose your favorite prompts and write them in the PROMPTS pages.

First: Bring your Cameo Journal with you to an event where you will see friends, family, colleagues or even meet some strangers.

Next: Invite them to write (or draw) on a page in your Cameo Journal.

Finally: Enjoy looking back at the invaluable keepsake you've created.
