Wreck This Journal

Saturday, October 03, 2009

I arrived back at my new house (that's right I'm here) to find a nice envelope from Amazon. This is exciting because a) I love packages from Amazon. b) Mail on a Saturday AWESOME! and c) I've been wanting to get this book for ages.

Wreck this Journal by Kerri Smith contains a collection of instructions about how to destroy the book creatively. On her blog the author discusses feedback she's been getting from people about how they are having a hard time destroying the book which I can understand. There is one instruction I am dreading doing. "Give away your favorite page" but I think it should be exciting.

I am hoping to do a page or 2 a day. I don't want to rush through it and I shall chronicle it here.

While you are waiting you can check out this flickr pool and these YouTube videos from the people who have gone before me.

Hmmm, I'm strangely compelled .... I may have to order a copy.

This sounds super fun... may have to treat myself over summer - could be a fun thing to do while I'm out rural next year!
