A Book With an Identity Crisis by Cheryl Penn

Reached the limit for photo posting so will put the beginning pages in the comment section sorry it's backwards. I think Nancy Bell Scott's suggestion is a good one to only photograph a select number of pages out of trashbooks to avoid scannitis, but this book from Cheryl needed to be shown in its' entirety as it is the journey of a soul searching book.

Comment by cheryl penn on October 20, 2011 at 5:45am: Hey everyone - good morning :-) - glad to see the trusty Coleman again! And thank you for the kind words - DK is the Boss of Trashpo from what I gather and overloaded DVS - the IMHO is of course for you :-). NBF - am I THAT predictable? I'm laughing :-))) - morning CB and MomKat - thanks for FAB blogging DK - its a puzzle for me of course :-) X

Comment by De Villo Sloan on October 20, 2011 at 1:36am: Wait. Cheryl did a Trash Book? Now I am totally on overload.

Comment by Marie Wintzer on October 19, 2011 at 11:37pm: I love it. It's not unlike Nancy's trashbook without trash that I got recently.

Comment by Nancy Bell Scott on October 19, 2011 at 9:42pm: Great blog, Diane, and Cheryl, what to say? There's nothing you won't try, and excel at to boot. This is a wonderful book. Visual is fantastic, but you always throw in some pointed yet to-be-determined verbal ideas as well. This is a treat on a day a treat is needed. Thanks to you both ~

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on October 19, 2011 at 8:32pm: This is definitely TRASHpo = poetry in pages of a book!

Items that could be "rubbish" become art...cerealism and all.

We are CHUFFED to see it!

Beautiful Cheryl!

What a great blog DK!

Comment by DKeys on October 19, 2011 at 8:21pm: This is most definately a trashbook and an amazing one at that. Cheryl is truly a master bookmaker of any and all kinds. And I was also lucky enough to get a section of her "Transgressing the Page" book. Awe inspiring both of these and Cheryl has gone a long way in defining what a trashbook is. thank you Cheryl! GOTIJ
