Spark Collections: Organize Your Journey
Curate themed writing prompts
Spark Collections are themed sets of writing prompts organized around specific topics or life phases. Instead of random prompts, work through curated collections like "Childhood Memories," "Career Journey," or "Travel Stories" to systematically capture your life.
📋 How It Works
Browse Collections
Explore pre-made collections like "First Year of Parenthood" or "Grandmother's Recipe Stories". Each collection has 10-50 related prompts.
Start a Collection
Begin any collection and work through prompts at your pace. Save progress - come back anytime. Collections track which prompts you've completed.
Answer Prompts
Each prompt becomes a memory when you answer it. Write, record audio, or add photos. Prompts guide you through comprehensive storytelling.
Complete & Celebrate
Finishing a collection unlocks a completion certificate and creates a special "Collection Complete" memory showing all your stories together.
