2010 Reading Log - Part 2
Swap Coordinator:kgeslab (contact)
Swap categories: Books  Letters & Writing  Email 
Number of people in swap:24
Location:International
Type:Type 1: Electronic
Last day to signup/drop:March 31, 2010
Date items must be sent by:July 5, 2010
Number of swap partners:5
Description:

It's pretty simple. Read. Write about what you read. Send your log off to five international partners via email.

You'll be sending your partners one reading log that contains your thoughts on all the books you read during the months of April, May and June, 2010. The log should be in Word or PDF or you could send a link to your blog or website if your reading log is there..

You need to jot down the title, the author and give a minimum of a one paragraph description about each book and your thoughts.

Feel free to include things like favorite quotes, the author's Web site, etc. Since we are using a new email format, links would be great!

This swap is about what you enjoy reading, not what your partners may or may not like. It doesn't matter what you read: fiction, non-fiction, magazines, audio books, e-books, children's, etc.

The details:

a) international (sent via e-mail)

b) five partners

c) minimum requirements: 6 books per quarter; one paragraph about the book. Author, title.

Voracious readers read more than two books a month. So there's no maximum. Your reading log should be sent NO earlier than the 15th of June.

The fine print:

Newbies welcome. Rated players need a 4.8 or higher. All participants must have a completed profile. I ban after the swap closes. As both a swap participant and coordinator, I like people to have positive swap experiences, so please no forum drama. Angels will be provided, and will be delivered via email.

Thank you to Artistic for allowing me to continue this swap!

This sounds cool, I wish it was snail-mail

I'm a bit confused:

The type of swap says electronic, but then you say this in your summary: a) international (sent via the post, NOT e-mailed)

thank you for hosting this again, @kgeslab ! I really like the idea of having more partners :)

Me, too! I love reading the thoughts of others - it helps me to pick new books to read.

I wish it was snail mail also... but I think there are some that are, that we can find ;)

I liked this...a lot! but like Morgenster & lexieforever I wished it was still snail mail. I was sad to see you switch to email format. As recieving the comments in the mail is more tangible and personal than recieving and email.
