Emotional Purge Journal Swap

I love doing journals just as much as the next journal addict but sometimes writing down my favorite books and things found in my purse can get a bit old. I love writing and feel journal writing really helps gets things off your chest, if you really let it.

For this swap, you will write or answer the questions from the list. This will pretty much be a writing journal only. I do not really see how it could have goodies or decorated pages really. This journal is all about the writing, all about the emotions that will probably go with the prompts. Because I'm not gonna lie...some of these prompts will make you think, make you cry, make you not want to do this swap. Some of these prompts will make you become defensive, make you want to write a one word reply. But that is not allowed.

For this swap, you will take a simple composition book, what I like to call cow print journals! You can also create your pages into a hand made type journal if you like. You can use this or some other comparable sized journal. You can decorate the cover but this is not a neccessity for this swap. Remember, it is about the writing, not how pretty the journal is.

You can hand write or type your answers to each question Please make sure you write on each page what the prompt was. Some will be harder than others but please do all of them.

This swap will be international.

You will have 1 partner of course.

Ratings of 4.9 or above please. Please have completed at least 15 Type 3 swaps.

This will be a very time intensive and emotional intensive swap so I do not want flakers joining, obviously.

I will have this so you have about 2 months to finish, so if you do 1-2 prompts a day, this should be fine.

If you have any questions please ask!
