Dream Journal Swap

Inspiration can come from some of the least likely of places. And some of the ones you'd expect as well. It's time to tap that potential that all of us has and exploit our dreams.

For this swap, you will make or buy a journal in which to keep a dream journal. This must be at least 4x6 inches in size. You can decorate the outside or not as you choose. This is your journal to do with as you please. Do consider you shipping cost when deciding what you will be using.

Please note that flakers will not be tolerated. However, due to the time consuming nature of this swap and the amount of effort that must go into it, I will not be able to angel on this one.

For this one, you must have a rating of 4.8 and no recent, unexplained 1's or 3's. I will be checking each profile before assigning partners.

How it works:

On the first page, or inside the front cover, write your name and where your from. It's always nice to know who was wonderful enough to send you something in the mail. It would be nice for you to write a brief introduction on the first page or two, but not necessary.

Over the course of the next few weeks, you will keep a dream diary. Now, you can either include this in your journal or not. Dreams can be very personal and do not include them if you do not feel comfortable doing so. You might get in the habit of leaving your journal by your bed so that you can write everything down first thing in the morning.

Now, from the dreams that you record, you are going to use that as inspiration for something creative (i.e. a story, a poem, a drawing). Whatever your thing is, do it. Since we will be having a nice long time to collect, I'm going to say please do at least 15. On the opposite page, note what day you had the dream that inspired the piece and perhaps a bit about why you did what you did. As I said before, if you feel comfortable sharing what you dreamed about, then feel free, but do not rate down if someone did not give you full, gory details of their dreams.

Due to shipping prices, I am going to make this a swap for the US. I might be willing to do an international one if there is any interest.
