Creative Destruction – Wreck this journal
I recently bought the talented Keri Smith’s book “Wreck this Journal“. It is what it sounds like. Pages of creative ways to destroy the book.
My Brand New Journal
I knew it was going to be fun, at least judging from the flickr pool of fellow wreckers, but I was totally unprepared for how freeing it would feel to do some of the exercises.
Me taking my journal for a walk
You just don’t realize how tied we all are to perfection until you try to resist the urge to be perfect, keep things perfect, or act perfectly. It is harder then you think to take a brand new book and drag it through a puddle of water. In a way, going through some of the exercises is like giving yourself permission to loosen up a little, make mistakes, be creative and take risks and also let go of the idea of possessing things.
My Journal - after a fall from high in the sky
Is anyone else wrecking a journal? Would love to hear your thoughts on the process!

Totally agreed with you about “perfection”. When I first started the wrecking, I couldn’t imagine myself even breaking the spine of the book. I want everything pristine … but as soon as I got over the 1st hurdle … wooohoooo … I’m flying! So keep going and have fun, fellow wrecker!
