The idea of this Anti book is to do a contrast on what a book or novel basically is. A book consists of a bulk of writing, word count varied, but a rough guide of...
Novel over 40,000 words,

The writing contained in a book is a usually something with purpose say something that is either a story with a start, beginning and end, or something that holds information of a subject in a structured form. These are usually edited, all have a set structure and laid out in chapters or sections.
By recording everything I write in two weeks, i'm reflecting on all the words that are just simple typed and forgotten about, all the lists and comments to people that are gone into the mass of text we write everyday. Also through this I am ignoring the editing process, giving it a raw feel, but also if this is then put into a book form does this simply make it a book even though the past rules have been ignored?
I am attempting to record this by a series of taking photographs, screen shots and copy and pasting everything I write with a time and date by it that will then be reordered after the two weeks into a word document, which the next steps can be taken from there. I have tested this out from a day of recording, it is a little time consuming, but worked the best way without me changing the results of what I would have written.
