If you have a hard time making time to journal, if you feel your journaling falls flat from lack of ideas, or if you want to share your journaling with other people without losing your work- this is your swap. Stay here, keep reading.

Attn: This swap series has remained pretty small and without issue so far, but I want to throw in a quick clarification. The prompts are a spring board. If you end up writing somewhere else by the time you are done or you interpret the prompt differently than your partner does- that's ok. This is not a high pressure series. It's more about being open minded and giving yourself extra motivation to journal. This is a safe place where as long as you start at the start point, there is no wrong way to go. If that's too lax for you, this isn't your swap (:

For this swap you will be journaling on a set prompt (below). You can use a journal you have going, a new journal just for these swaps, or pages of loose paper. (or napkins, or fabric, or digital stuff- it really doesn't matter.) Because you keep what you make.
You will be sending your partner a photocopy (or printed photograph, or printout) of your journal page.

It's that simple. Journal your response to the prompt. Do your best to make it nice (both for your journal and your partner) and then produce a copy and mail it off.

Copies can be made in black and white. Work can be done in any medium. Your copy can be sent folded! It doesn't have to be perfect (misspellings and scribbles are ok sometimes) but it needs to be presentable. Be on your best journaling behavior.

Please include your swap bot name and the swap on the back of your photocopy.
