Burn After Writing - welcome to the Book of You. It's an extended feature length interview with you, a radical thought experiment with you as the subject and you as the result. This collection of playful, probing and provocative questions prompts you to profile your innermost self in writing. Play a game of Truth or Dare with yourself. How honest can you really be with only you watching? And when you finish the book...will you Burn After Writing...? Put simply, it's a secret diary for proper grown ups. It's playful, and like all real play it pushes limits, flirts with fears and shoots craps with the big unknown. In a society where where we 'share' our everything, BAW goes against the grain and politely asks you to 'share' nothing."Tumblr, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, texting, Snapchat, YouTube, the world has become one giant confessional. In a reversal of this trend, Burn After Writing encourages you to share nothing. With its incisive questions and thought experiments, this private journal challenges you to play a game of Truth or Dare with yourself. Push your limits, reflect on your past, present, and future, and create a secret book that's about you, and just for you. And when you're finished, toss it, hide it, or Burn After Writing"--From publisher description.
