| This journal isn't unique, there are others like it circulating, but I wanted one for myself. The idea is to write a story together. This works as follows: 1) When you receive the journal, read the story up to the last entry
2) Add a little bit to the story – really as much as you want to. It should be more than one sentence, but anything between a paragraph and a few pages is fine.
3) Add your name to the page of contents at the beginning of the journal.
4) Feel free to add any illustrations to your part of the story.
5) Send the journal along to its next author. I wrote an introduction, but the story line is still open and can obviously change throughout the process of creating this book. When I get the journal back, I will publish the story online, so that everyone who participated in the project can enjoy it. This journal comes in an A5 binder, for the simple reason that that's the only appropriate thing I had available at home. Please don't add any pages to the existing ones in the binder – that will just make this project endless. When you reach the last page, bring the story to an end and contact me (Hannah, BmId: hanhel), so that I can mooch it back from you. I suggest you relist the journal on your inventory immediately after marking it received (since you'll already be on Bookmooch anyway :)) – this will make it available as soon as possible for other moochers, and remind you to make an entry. Don't worry about time pressure – you can always tell a moocher that it will take you a little longer to send out their book. |
