Oasis Pages Teen Writing Quest:
Find Your Daily Writing Habit
For teens who write — and those who might want to!
Lots of teens want to keep a diary/journal but aren’t sure what to write. That’s why the Oasis Pages Teen Writing Quest provides a page-a-day road map, featuring four Writing Superpowers, Daily Templates, and Writing Jump-Starters, along with Notes and Tips throughout. The Oasis Pages Quest makes it engaging and interesting to enjoy writing — as an oasis of well-being, a sanctuary for figuring things out, a way to navigate inner landscapes, and a tool for growing as a writer and human being.
The Oasis Pages invites you to write a book of yourself … whether this is your first time or you’ve been writing for years.
Endorsements
“As a teenager, no one took my desire to write seriously, so I didn’t either. How different it might have been had someone handed me a copy of Oasis Pages back then. Grace Welker’s inviting and thoughtful approach to establishing a daily writing practice, along with inspiring prompts, quotes, and tips she offers could have opened spaces within myself I didn’t even know existed.”
—Danna Faulds, author of seven books of poetry, including Go in and In
“Writing saved my life, and it took me years to figure out that paying attention to my own thoughts could help me find my own inspired way in the world, like no other tool. I can’t imagine how much better my life would have been if I’d had the Oasis Pages when I was going through my most turbulent years. I LOVE the prompts in this book that really help you to start caring about your own life, voice, and sensibilities and to strengthen yourself with self-knowledge.
Grab a copy of the Oasis Pages for every teen you know. It’s one of the BEST investments you will ever make. In a world of overwhelm, social media, and so much screen time, the Oasis Pages is a fun, fresh way for teens to get to know the most important resource of their lifetimes: themselves.”

“I picked up the Oasis Pages Teen Writing Quest thinking I’d buy copies for the teens in my life. And I will! It’s beautifully designed, the text is original and inviting, and the approach is smart and real. But after reading through it, I wanted to keep a copy for myself, too!
I love that this journal eschews the dogma of writing every day and instead leaves space for days you just don’t feel like putting pen to paper. But the tone and invitations to write are so encouraging and creative that it sparks a desire to get started and curiosity about what one will discover on the journey.”
