Description:
Here's how this swap works. Get a journal and fill it out over a month. You can make a journal or do a junk journal. I do not have a journal size/type requirement. Use your best judgment that you can send a nice and journal that is worth your partner's time. However, your journal must be larger than a pocket journal (a journal that can fit in your back pocket). You can do whatever you want in your journal, just make sure you fill it with stories, journal entries, collages, art, recipes, whatever you want. Your goal should be to fill a page/pages every day. Do not join this swap unless you can commit to at least doing an entry every day. We all know life happens so if you miss a day just make it up. Do not send a journal you have previously made. The goal is to work on this journal every day throughout the month. Don't join if you can not commit. Also, depending on the size of your journal, you may have unused pages at the end. That is fine as long as you've done your daily page/entry. Some journals have more pages than you will need. IMPORTANT: Each entry should be something of substance. Several stickers or a few sentences do not count. Please put some thought and work into this so that your partner receives something that they will enjoy. October Journal Swap Starts September 30th and must be sent by November 7th

Every time I join one of these, I kinda get disappointed. I like to know what is going on in your life and usually I just get art. So, is this mostly a daily blog of what’s happening in your life or just a junk journal filled with stuff? One or two sentences doesn’t seem like enough to me.

@Lablauri57 I know the feeling of being disappointed in what I receive from a swap partner sometimes...as I’ve interpreted it to be one thing and they do something completely different. When I do these kind of swaps I try to do a mixture, especially so it’s different for me, too, as each day may be different in my mood of what I’d like to do. I always try to write a min. of two pages, or one page front and back. For me it’s not a junk journal, as it’s not part of the title...but that’s just my interpretation.

Thanks@heathka81. Journal and junk journal are two different things. I will join and just hope my partner understands my thoughts.

@Lablauri57 Hey I completely understand where your coming from and as well @heathka81 the ones that are normally hosted I see a lot of people craft in them and add a lot of goodies ect I would like everyone to at least write a paragraph a day about what is going if you can't then add a picture or a quote if you don't have anything to write about !!
