Autor Keri Smithen Limba Engleză Paperback – sep 2014
To imagine something different, better, or more interesting is to push the existing world into a state of change. Some of the greatest revolutionary acts of our time came to be because someone had the courage to imagine something new.
In "The Imaginary World of," Keri Smith asks readers to imagine something new: a unique world of their own making.
Readers start by creating a list of everything to which they re drawn: things they love and collect, colors, shapes, ideas, people, and creatures that fascinate them. The items in the list will become the building blocks for their imaginary worlds, used to create texture and establish a foundation for the new place they ll begin to inhabit. Readers will then be prompted to think about landscape, place names, maps, currency, residents, logos, foods, histories, and more for their world.
An indispensable guide for artists, dreamers, activists, and kids of all ages, "The Imaginary World of" will encourage readers to become revolutionaries of everyday life, chronicling the possibilities in the brave new worlds they envision."

Praise for Wreck This Journal:
"I've kept journals before, but have never written in them as frequently as I write in my Wreck This Journal. I struggle to put it down. Instead of blank lined pages, each page has a different task. Wreck This Journal is great for inspiration; it gives you tasks that are thought-provoking rather than pages of endless blank lines. It is a great way to pass the time and a great gift for anyone, no matter how young or old."
