Ny bog af forfatteren bag fænomenet Wreck This Journal. Endnu et oplagt hit til alle dem, der elsker det kreative univers.Dette er ikke en bog, men hvad er det så? I hvert fald en form for publikation, der helt igennem er skør og appellerende og i den grad sætter spørgsmålstegn ved, hvad en bog er og ikke er.Tegn, skriv, riv, hop, fold, farv, klip, lim - gør hvad som helst. Det er dig, der bestemmer, hvordan indholdet skal være. Ingen vil nogen sinde lave noget magen til. Fantasien skal på turbotur, alle tøjler kan slippes - i jagten på at give den indestængte kreative kraft frit spil.
