Vignettober 2025

Vignettober is a writer's spin on the famous Inktober challenge for artists. The rules are simple:

1. Write a one-page vignette each day, with that day's word as your prompt. The length is entirely dependent on the size of your paper, font, handwriting size, pen thickness... As long as your vignette goes from the first line of the page down to the last, you've met the one-page requirement.
2. Follow the one-word prompt however you'd like. It can be entirely about the subject at hand, or it can have a completely tangential relation.
3. For each day you miss, you should add that day's word to your next prompt and extend the page count to match.
4. Don't feel pressured to write anything good, or even to revise your work. If you wrote shit, you wrote shit. If you want to improve it, improve it.
5. Have fun!
