AlbakiReads Editorial

A journal built for making—and undoing

Keri Smith’s expanded edition turns journaling into a hands-on series of creative prompts. Pages invite readers to poke holes, add and deface photographs, paint with coffee, and color beyond the lines; the book can become both the material for the activity and its record. By making mess and imperfection part of the task, it offers an alternative starting point for people who find a blank page difficult to approach. The emphasis is on experimenting directly with the journal, sometimes by altering or damaging its pages, rather than simply writing in it.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • People who enjoy interactive, prompt-based creative activities
  • Journal or sketchbook users who want an unconventional way to get started
  • Adults interested in playful experimentation with paper and image-making

Book overview

"Not gonna lie, this is probably the coolest journal you'll ever see. . . . Wreck This Journal is here to inspire you." --Buzzfeed

The internationally bestselling phenomenon with more than 10 million copies sold--and an excellent holiday gift! Paint, poke, create, destroy, and wreck--to create a journal as unique as you are


For anyone who's ever had trouble starting, keeping, or finishing a journal or sketchbook comes this expanded edition of Wreck This Journal, a subversive illustrated book that challenges readers to muster up their best mistake- and mess-making abilities to fill the pages of the book--or destroy them.

Through a series of creative and quirky prompts, acclaimed guerilla artist Keri Smith encourages journalers to engage in destructive acts--poking holes through pages, adding photos and defacing them, painting pages with coffee, coloring outside the lines, and more--in order to experience the true creative process. With Smith's unique sensibility, readers are introduced to a new way of art- and journal-making, discovering novel ways to escape the fear of the blank page and fully engage in the creative process.

To create is to destroy. Happy wrecking!
