Wreck This Journal
Wreckers, unite! Originalists, journalistas, and fabulists of all forms, wait no longer! The revolution is hereāand it will not be tidy. Illustrator, master blogger, and "guerrilla artist" Keri Smith has thrown open the doors to the life of "creative destruction" and invited you in. Get a blank book. Carry it with you wherever you go. Subject its pages to the elements. Think you're alone? No way! Browse the gallery of notebooks already stained, stitched, painted, torn, folded, glued, scratched, and stapled by your inventive comrades. Return to the site for suggestions. In one, Keri calls for marking your journal with "whatever is around you." In another, she says make a "resist" and then coat it (definitions are provided). Now, get out there and spoil your book! Demolish your pages! Shatter the clean, white sheet! We can't wait to see the shipwrecked results.
