A prompted journal for the first year in a new home. Moving Journal: A Prompted Keepsake For Fresh Starts is No Particular Order's journal for the physical and emotional strangeness of a move, whether it's across town or across an ocean. Thirty-nine prompted pages walk you through the year: what you left behind, what you're carrying, what you're afraid of, what you're already loving, what the new neighborhood tastes like on a Tuesday. Nineteen additional blank pages give room for whatever the prompts don't reach — sketches, taped-in receipts, a coffee card from the corner shop, notes on the neighbor who introduces themselves first.
The front cover folds out to reveal twelve neighborly conversation starters — small icebreakers for the moments when you actually meet the people around you. The back cover has a folder for memos and receipts. The spine is sewn, glued, and taped for the kind of durability that survives being carried between apartments, tossed in a moving box, then read again five years later.
Answer the prompts in any order, or work through them front to back. By the end, the new house feels like home.
Soft cover, B6 (5 x 7 inches). Designed for the first year.
WHY IT'S SPECIAL
- Built for the emotional side of moving, not just the logistics: the questions ask about what you're carrying with you, what you're afraid of, and what's already becoming familiar — the stuff no moving checklist covers.
- 39 prompted pages + 19 blank pages: structure where structure helps, space where it doesn't.
- Fold-out front cover with 12 neighborly conversation starters: small icebreakers for meeting the people around you. Useful, quietly clever.
- Back cover folder: for the receipts, the map from the moving company, the note from the previous owner about the boiler.
- Sewn, glued, and taped spine: designed to survive being carried, thrown in a box, and reopened years later.
- A meaningful gift: for the person leaving a childhood home, moving cities post-grad, or making the leap they've been talking about for years.

THE BRAND
No Particular Order is a small studio making journals, cards, and printed objects built around a single conviction: the most useful prompts are the ones you can answer when you want to, not when a calendar tells you to. The brand started with Volume 1, a 200-prompt journal that became a quiet sensation, and has expanded into travel journals, moving journals, career-planning journals, and calling cards — all sharing the same premise: bringing intention and presence back to interactions that have mostly moved to screens.
