have any of you heard of POSTSECRET?


A friend of mine introduced the books to me over the weekend and I was hooked! They are sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious. This guy Frank lived through a tragic time when his wife killed herself years back and he was part of the suicide helpline and things like that but apparently he laid out like a million postcards all over the world for people to write their secrets on and send them in. There has been about three books and a fourth is on its way- they are composed of the secrets that come in and illustrations and pictures are kind of collaged with them. For example stuff like "I had an abortion, and regret it til this day, 20 years later." Or "I hate my Mother in law...That's why I poisoned her" Lol ok I kind of exaggerated that one but its just fascinating- if you can't get your hands on the books go visit- www.postsecret.blogspot.com - he posts new ones every sunday!
