Description:

This is an international swap for writers of all kinds to help inspire each other.

We will each send one partner an inexpensive journal or notebook (any type is fine), but first, we will write in them! At the top of every few pages (the exact number you use may depend on the size of the book), write a creative prompt for your partner to respond to. This can be a good title, a quote you love, an interesting word, a question, a thought-provoking idea, or anything else you can think of, but please be creative and specific, i.e. don't just write generic themes. Shoot for at least 20 prompts, but feel free to include as many as you can think of and/or fit!

When we receive our journals, we should try to fill them in by responding to each prompt with our writing format of choice (fiction, poetry, essays, song lyrics, etc). The journal is yours to keep, and my hope is that we will each be inspired to write something we wouldn't have thought of otherwise.

This swap is open to swappers with a rating of 4.8 or higher. If your rating is lower but you want to join, please message me with an explanation first. If you are new and unrated but are extremely interested and will definitely follow through, please send me a message about your interest and the type or types of writing that you do.

Can we make the journals as long as there is enough pages for the prompts? Or what is the basic journal suppose to be?Dawny

I'd love to do this. It sounds like a great idea! You never know when just one word or phrase is going to inspire you to more.

Dawny - yes, you are welcome to make the journal yourself. The journal or notebook can be anything you want, since the emphasis is on what goes inside.
