Particular Books are very excited to welcome the creative talents of best-selling author Keri Smith. Her books are huge word-of-mouth hits in the US: where four years after publication, Keri's first book "Wreck This Journal" continues to sell a thousand copies a week..."This is Not a Book" takes a uniquely skewed look at the purpose and function of 'a book', Keri Smith asks readers to creatively examine all the different ways. "This Is Not a Book" can be used. With intriguing prompts, readers will discover that this book can be: A secret message - tear out a page, write a note on it for a stranger, and leave it in a public place. A recording device - have everyone you contact today write their name in the book. An instrument - create as many sounds as you can using the book, like flipping the pages fast or slapping the cover. "This Is Not a Book" will engage readers by having them define everything a book can be by asking, 'If it's not a book, what is it then?' - with a kaleidoscope of possible answers.

Pocket Scavenger

Keri Smith came to us with the idea for a more unstructured datebook meant to inspire creativity more than strictly plan your life. As you might guess by the name, this is not your everyday planner, in many senses of the word. The Non-Planner Datebook randomly intersperses undated monthly overviews with journal and idea pages so that you can have some sense of framework, but not feel constricted or bound by predictability. And Keri s whimsical structure and art are meant to amuse and make you reflect, but also just capture current moments and states. It may seem paradoxical to be simultaneously looking towards the future and the present moment, but it works in reminding you that organizing the later can be just as enjoyable as living the now. 
Datebook Stats: -new 2nd printing -12 undated month-at-a-glance pages -reference mini-calendars for 2009-2011 -81 note/jounal pages with varying degrees of customization -two-color cover and olive ink on natural interior pages -printed in Oakland, CA on 100% post-consumer recycled paper with soy-based inks -5 wide x 7 tall spiral-bound book with chipboard back cover -96 pages, 70# text natural

The Non-Planner Datebook

Little Otsu

As you might guess by the title, this is not your average datebook. In fact, it's not really a planner at all (thus the Non-Planner part of the name). The Non-Planner Datebook is a creative journal that has randomly interspersed undated monthly overviews with notes and idea pages so that you can have some sense of framework, but not feel constricted or bound by predictability. And Keri's whimsical structure and art are meant to amuse and make you reflect, but also just capture current moments and states. It may seem paradoxical to be simultaneously looking towards the future and the present moment, but it works in reminding you that thinking about the later can be just as enjoyable as living the now. 
Non-Planner Datebook Stats: -new paperback edition -81 note/jounal pages with varying degrees of customization -12 undated month-at-a-glance pages -two-color 80#natural cover -blue ink on 70# text natural interior pages -printed in Oakland, CA on 100% recycled paper with soy-based inks -5 1/8" wide x 6 15/16" tall perfect-bound book -96 pages
