Today I took my Wreck this Journal journal to the park for an outing, a little fresh air, some sunshine. Then I burned it up.
A bit overdone, perhaps, but tasty!
HEY WRECK STARS! KEEP ON WRECKING!!!!

Losing It with Wreck this Journal

by Barbara Martin on July 17, 2009

in Creative Juice

Wreck this Journal game: week 6 (or 7), how it played out.
That “let it go” page has been bothering me for weeks so today I decided this would be “The Day I Lose It” no matter what.
In mid-afternoon I left it inside a local freebie newsprint magazine that I found on the coffee table in [...]

Wreck this Journal Spins on White

by Barbara Martin on July 9, 2009

in Creative Juice

The instruction was: cover this page with white things. So I did. (This is week 5 or 6 of the Wreck this Journal game, depending on who’s counting.)
White paper textures. White lettering. “SMILE” and white-on-color logos. White slippers. A newsprint map to White’s. The whites of an eye. Toilet paper roll – plush white. “A [...]

Last Thursday afternoon: mailed book to self. Deep breaths.
Friday noon: BOOK IN MAILBOX! Stamps not cancelled, no postmark, in fact not a single new mark on it! Must have been hand carried with kid glove treatment.
I toss it on my [...]

Still Wrecking This Journal

by Barbara Martin on June 19, 2009

in Creative Juice

Kitty and I blithely sloshed, dripped, and finally dumped coffee dregs on the book, driving the resident-home-for-the-summer-college-know-it-all to raise an eyebrow:
“That’s sure not something you see every day!”
Truth or Consequences/TMI?
I’ve been using the book as a handy coaster all week. One day I kind of missed and splashed doused the keyboard [...]

Wrecking This Journal Week 1

by Barbara Martin on June 12, 2009

in Creative Juice

First week of Wreck this Journal. I’m amazed to find myself tempted to write in it rather than wreck it. For me, a blank journal usually sits empty and forlorn and lost and neglected; I hate the blank pages! So maybe the suggestive pre-entries have warmed it up for my writing urges?

Let’s Wreck this Journal

by Barbara Martin on June 4, 2009

in Creative Juice

For the next few weeks I am playing Wreck this Journal on the interwebz. I gather it might be fun, maybe interesting, maybe even a bit reckless. Dunno about that, how much trouble can you get into with a paperback book? Anyhoo. You are welcome to play! All you need is a copy of the [...]
