For anyone who's ever wished to, but had trouble starting, keeping, or finishing a journal or sketchbook comes Wreck This Journal, an illustrated book that features a subversive collection of prompts, asking readers to muster up their best mistake- and mess-making abilities to fill the pages of the book (and destroy them).

Oh my God, this is fantastic. I haven't been this happy in weeks. ♥(Except now it's wearing off, oops.)
Only bought the journal today, but I've had quite a bit of fun with it already. I've dripped syrup on it, stuffed kaffir lime leaves in it, coloured, painted, dripped, scribbled, stuck, stamped and torn. Here are a couple of the earliest entries.Don't worry. It'll get messier....!
A really fun way to release creativity blocks! Be sure to watch all the cute YouTube videos people have made around this book.
