The Keri Smith Adventures

If you guys haven't heard of the author Keri Smith you're definitely missing out.

     I first stumbled upon Keri Smith at my local Hastings (which is like a Barnes and Noble but waaayyy much better, anywhere from comics, movies, to books, but this blog isn't about that store its about Keri Smith in case you forgot).

     From what I remember I was just looking through some art books and found myself reading a title off of this red book called "This Is Not a Book". Which made me wonder "If this is not a book then what the heck is it?" Not knowing what this book was I flipped through a few pages and off to the register I went.
     
     Here I was in my room wondering what I got myself into with this book. I had no clue how to make use of this book, what this book even was, or why I even purchased this book without researching it.

     I figured after purchasing this book the front cover stated by Keri Smith creator of Wreck This Journal. Then I thought to myself "Oh man am I suppose to purchase that book first?" "Maybe this book will make sense if I did?" Back to the store I went to find this so called "Wreck this Journal", of course I read the first few pages stating I'm going to need some art supplies, pens, crayons, pencils, markers dirt DIRT?!!?? Why do I need dirt, etc. I definitely saw the light at the end of the tunnel and put 2 and 2 together, I guess these were art journals (whatever that may be). 

And so it began my Keri Smith Adventures!


     I think its become more of a collection then an adventure, in this order I've purchased these books This Is Not A Book, Wreck This Journal, Mess, Finish This Book, The Pocket Scavenger, and her latest Everything Is Connected. With all her books piled up and unfinished, I finally came up with a solution why not continue my Keri Smith Adventures on my blog.

Monday will be Mess Monday
Tuesday will be
This Is Not Tuesday
Wednesday will be
Wreck It Wednesday
Thursday will be Thursday
Scavenger
Friday will be Finish This Friday


     I'm still debating if I will pick one day of the week for the whole month. Meaning next month I can do every Mondays Mess Monday and the following month will be This Is Not Tuesday and so forth. Or I can also do every other week Monday through Friday, I have until June 1st to figure out what I want to do.
