I have long loved snipping words out of book pages to create book page poems like this:
It's always fun to see what you can create.
However, this time I decided to create poems by redacting a single book page. Much more challenging.
Making these is like putting together a puzzle. It's a great brain teaser. Plus, it's a lovely way to stitch together a little fantasy story and get yourself in the right mindset to create some cool art. A creative warm-up of sorts.
I think my favorite is the fourth one down, "Love & War." Which one is your favorite?
Thanks for stopping by!

What an impressive idea. I never thought of doing something like this. Now, as I hunker down for the storm, I will pull out some old book pages I’ve been saving, and do some art ala Julie style. Thanks for the mega dose of inspiration!!!
And thanks for prepping things ahead of the storm so we can have you through the week! I’m with you on hoping we don’t lose power!

This is a rather interesting form of utilizing the written word. I’ve been interested for several years after I discovered Nick Bantock…and that led to this art. Stay safe today!

Fantastic idea, Julie, indeed a good exercise for the little grey cells.
I like the last piece best, because it immediately set me thinking about how the story might continue.
The extract I like the least is the “Love and War” one, because I do not agree to these two being alike at all.

I kind of liked ‘the trial’… though they were all pretty cool. I have never done that before. I wish there were more hours in the day. My prayers are going out to the east coast. Stay dry Julie!

Praying for the entire area in Sandy’s path. Stay safe!!

This is cool, but my favorite redacted phrase is, “One good woman in the world, every married man should think his own wife was she.” Of course, that’s not exactly how it reads in the book (your’s is better)!
I’ve been watching the news this morning and am feeling VERY fortunate that Sandy didn’t “hit” FL. Hope everyone heeds the warnings and stays safe.

I really loved this. What a neat thought. Maybe that’ll be a good rainy day activity with my daughter. Looks like we’re in for the brunt of the storm hear in Coastal CT. We’re lucky that we won’t have to worry about the storm surge where we live, just the rain and wind.

I think Hope at Last is my fave.
Julie, I’m not surprised you have posts ready to go, just in case! I hope its not necessary! When you said you had to go without hot water, I hoped that would be the worst of it.
The eye of Sandy came ashore a couple of hours ago. Here, the winds are gusting like crazy, and people around us are losing power. Not us yet. Don’t want to talk about it — might jinx us! No school tomorrow again! Everyone’s home, safe, together.
Hope your power stays on. Stay safe!

Julie, I too really loved your redacted poems. I have a friend who has book sales & she gets tons of books (!) that she sells all the time. I forwarded your email to her and she thought it was touching & brilliant … she also asked me if I wanted a couple hundred books to redact my own poems … I was thinking maybe 10, instead :O)
I also read your emails everyday and it really is a joy these days. Keep on doing what you’re doing!
p.s. I’m very glad you’ve got your power back on–we lost ours too. Big bummer–but hilarious too–found miners lights. Too funny for words.
