Description:

This is the Seventh swap in my series of Shared journal swaps.

IF YOU TOOK PLACE IN THE FIRST, SECOND, THIRD, FOURTH,FIFTH OR SIXTH ROUND: you have received a journal with a bio, a journal entry, and a journal prompt. Your task now is to answer that journal prompt, write a bio about yourself, and a journal entry to include a response to what your partner wrote, and then end with a journal prompt for the next person to answer, and then send your journal off to your partner.

IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST ROUND: Please feel free to join even if you didn't take part from the start. What you will do is get a journal, notebook, comp book, anything with at least 80 pages and on the front cover, write what the journal is for and who you are, on the back page write your name and address and where to send the journal home when it is full. Then you will write a bio about yourself (about a page or so) and then one journal entry about your day, your self, your thoughts, life, the world, whatever comes to mind that you want to write about. On the next page you will then write one journal prompt for your partner to answer. Thats it, send it off to your partner!

You will have one month to send out your journal.

Now the fine print: I will check profiles carefully, if you look fishy, and offer no explanation, i will ban. If you are new, have a VERY well filled out profile and at least 5 mail swaps completed.

I hope this all makes sense, and please feel free to ask any questions.

new this round::: If you have taken part in the previous rounds, please write in the comment section who's journal you currently have and will be passing along, that way we can make sure that our own journals are still out there.

No no wait...that was wrong....I received Suzanne Lambert's journal....sorry about that!!!

There is a flaker signed up for this swap. Just a heads up.

Hi, I have received (daniecex)'s journal and am ready to mail it off!

Jjean 08/ 8/2011 #

I am still waiting on the 5th & 6th round of Journals.......

HeidiJean 08/13/2011 #

Waiting for round 6...

LilyM 08/16/2011 #

Today is the last day and there are still 6 (SIX) that have not sent out their number 6 Journals. Come on ppls why are you waiting until the last day? I think a month is plenty of time..in fact 2 weeks should be the limit that you should hang unto someone else's journal. Don't sign up for these if you can't fulfill the requirements. I am still waiting on my number 6 and am always prompt on getting them out and this really messes me up. I don't think I will join any more of these and I know there are a lot of others that feel the same way. RANT..VENT..RANT

@lilym This is only my second round, and I'm already getting frustrated....

LilyM 08/17/2011 #

So sorry to hear that Heidi. I started in round #2 and the first couple were good and in a timely fashion but it has gone down hill since. I sure hope the flakers are removed and it gets back going good again soon.

I have Bonnie Core's Journal. Will be working on it and then will be passing on before the deadline. Will put another note when I have mailed it out.

Does anyone have Barbara Brandt's journal? That is my journal. I am hoping it is not with a flaker, but with one of you wonderful journal writers that is helping keep this all going. Put a note on here if you have my journal.

@sleepingover2010 I sent your journal for round 6 to LISA COTTRELL ( user8179 )

tamtamlee 08/18/2011 #

I haven't received from round 6 yet

LilyM 08/18/2011 #

It doesn't look like I'm going to be getting a journal to pass on. My partner from round 6 has not sent it out yet and hasn't been on Swap-bot since the 2nd of Aug. The coordinator hasn't even sent her's out yet but has partners assigned for this swap. On round six I waited the whole month to get that one, it was sent out on the last day. I will not be joining anymore of these...so whenever I do get another one to pass on, I will just return it to its owner and be done. Whomever has mine can please do the same.

HeidiJean 08/19/2011 #

I just rec'd Lisa Cottrells journal today, and will pass it along before the end of the swap

tamtamlee 08/20/2011 #

I have two Journals out there....One is from the very first round and the second I had to make cause I was flaked on. Anyone of either of them? Tammy Black {tamtamlee}

tamtamlee 08/20/2011 #

I just received Jan Rader {BluGinhm } Journal

JenL 08/26/2011 #

I'm wondering where my journal is as well. Any ideas?

Jjean 09/ 1/2011 #

I won't be joining anymore of these swaps, if anyone has my journal, please PM me so we can make arrangements for it to be mailed back to me.....thank you....Jjean

LilyM 09/ 2/2011 #

Never did get a journal. So as not to be a flaker like so any in this group I have made a new one and sent it out today. It is going to Jesshens1125 who we all know is going to be absent for some time so there it will set. I will not be foolish enough to join anymore. My sister dropped out at 5 because she never received a journal to send on either.

tamtamlee 09/ 3/2011 #

There is a few that hasn't sent there journals out yet. Lets not wait till the last day! If you take notice for round 8 it's only 3 weeks so if you wait till the last day for #7 your not going to give your partner to much time to send theres out for the next round.
