YOUR LIFE IN COMICS

100 THINGS FOR GUYS TO WRITE AND DRAW

This is a do-it-yourself comic journaling book just for boys.

What’s more fun than reading comics? Making your own. YOUR LIFE IN COMICS lets you do just that. Most other books give you all the words and illustrations so you don’t have a say about what happens. Well, this book isn’t like that. Instead, it’s an interactive comic book where you can write and draw stories from your own life. There are also cartoons where you get to decide what happens to other characters.

Fill in the talk and thought balloons to show what the people say and think – their fate is in your hands!

What kinds of stuff will you write about and draw in this book? It’s up to you. Some of the pages are funny and some are serious. Many are about family, friends, or other people you know. All the pages needs your imagination to be complete!

This journaling book is formatted as an interactive digital journal. It will allow you to write directly on your screen into the areas with lines on each of the book’s pages. When you are done typing, simply save the document until the next time you are inspired to make new entries.

HOW TO CREATE INSTANT ORAL BIOGRAPHIES

RECORDING YOUR FAMILY’S LIFE STORY, WITH JOURNALING/INTERVIEW PROMPTS

"Grandma, tell me a story about where you grew up."

"Dad, how’d you meet mom? What was she like then?"

"Mom, what was I like when I was little?"

Every family has its own history, its own well of stories and experiences that enriches each of its members. In this book, Bill Zimmerman (the creator of MakeBeliefsComix.com} shows you how to record your family’s history. With a mobile phone or tape recorder, you can create a living record of each member of your family – grandparents, parents, uncles, aunts and cousins – that will preserve their wit, wisdom and traditions for you and one day for your own children.

The book will teach you how to interview relatives and give you all the questions you need to learn their stories. Taping people’s life stories is a fun activity for those times when families get together for reunions, holidays and family vacations; it draws older and younger generations closer as they share stories and memories.

And for educators, the book features a helpful teachers’ guide for using oral histories in the classroom.

Pep Talks for When You Need Them

Who among us doesn’t need to hear warm, encouraging words from time to time – even if we have to say them to ourselves? I know I do. I first began writing and giving myself pep talks during the many years I managed daily newspapers. Often, in the quiet of early mornings before work, I would compose the thoughts found in this PEP TALKS FOR WHEN YOU NEED THEM book. They were a way to talk to myself, to find comfort and courage, to feel less alone as I began my day. Some of these pep talks were written to help me deal with the daily pressures of work; others were written as I struggled with personal problems that overwhelmed me at times. I badly needed such words to help bolster my spirit and maintain a sense of dignity and self-respect when I felt weak.

My hope is that the good words in this PEP TALKS FOR WHEN YOU NEED THEM book will be meaningful for you, too. In this book space is provided for you to record your own words of inspiration and support.

This PEP TALKS FOR WHEN YOU NEED THEM book is formatted as an interactive digital journal diary. It will allow you to write directly on your screen into the areas with lines on the book’s pages. When you are done typing, simply save the document until the next time you are inspired to make new entries.

Something To Write About:

Journaling Prompts for English Language Learners and Literacy Students

Author Bill Zimmerman created this book of writing prompts over the years teaching English language learners and literacy students. Its intent is to help students discover their writers' voices and express the rich thoughts within them as they master the English language. Students are encouraged to write about their family, their friends, their old life and their new life, feelings, dreams and goals.
These journaling prompts encourage students of all ages to write about the things in their lives that are meaningful to them—their childhood memories and family stories, the people they love and admire, their hopes for the future, their deepest beliefs. Zimmerman says, "I have always believed that everyone has a story to tell—if only someone would ask, if only someone would listen." This book gives teachers a way to draw out students' stories and help them communicate their thoughts through writing.

Encouraging immigrant students to write is so important because it helps them better weather the enormous stress they experience as they learn their hard-won English language and adjust to life in a new land far away from their original homes.

This journaling book is formatted as an interactive digital journal diary. It will allow you to write directly on your screen into the areas with lines on each of the book’s pages. When you are done typing, simply save the document until the next time you are inspired to make new entries.

Words I Wish Someone Had Said to Me As a Kid

I wrote this book of encouraging words to help young people as they make their way in the world. Every girl and boy needs to hear such words. I know I did. You see, I lost my father when I was very young and missed hearing the words that a child needs to hear from his or her dad. There are questions on each page to encourage journaling.

Growing up, I tried hard to imagine the things he would have said to guide me if he were around. A few years ago, right before Father’s Day, I longed for my dad very much, and to seek comfort I began writing a letter from him to me, saying some of the things which I so wanted to hear—that he was proud of the person I had grown up to become and that he loved me very much.

Writing the letter helped me that day and I continued to write more letters in the voice of a father talking to a child. In time, these letters grew into this book to inspire children.

If you’re a young person reading this journaling book, think of each page as a personal letter of caring words from me to you, like the ones an older friend or relative might say to you. I hope young readers will turn to the book whenever you need a good word or when you are feeling lonely or unsure. If you are a parent or teacher, you may find some of the thoughts offered echo what you may have said to a child in your life, or perhaps they will give you new ideas for future personal messages. You can also read and discuss the book’s thoughts with a young person.

There is even space there for you to write your own thoughts directly onto the computer screen and into this book, which is in an interactive PDF format.
