If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery; what is destruction? POETRY! Redacted poetry, a.k.a. blackout poetry, is a form of found poetry created by finding words within printed text and redacting, or removing, the rest. Learn about redacted poetry and start redacting to create your own works of art with this 120+ page, softcover 6x9" poetry journal.
This 120+ page Redacted Poetry Journal includes:
- Getting Started & How to Make it "R.A.I.N." Blackout Poetry - An introduction to Redacted Poetry and a step-by-step blackout poetry section and tips for those just getting started or looking for a new approach.
- Ready to be redacted pages curated from 50 classic works by some of the greatest authors and writers of all time.
- Space for your thoughts and information on additional resources for continuing your redacted art adventure. #redactedpoetry
- Plus, you won't destroy books and novels. Instead, your bookshelf will remain intact and this journal will become something so much more than just text, by you redacting it to less.

Inspired by words and the spaces in between. I write and create to understand myself, the world, and others. I've only created journal & books that I wanted and wasn't able to find. My background is not in writing, formally. However, I've always felt a relentless desire to nurture my creative side while working a typical 9-5. I hope you enjoy my books and that they ignite your inspiration and motivation. My only ask is that you forget the rules, and color outside the lines. Cheers to creativity and finding YOUR write words, not THE right words (pun intended).
