Description:

Have you ever seen one of those calendars that lists all the "Days" such as Thank a Mailman Day, Make a Friend Day, National Pistachio Day, and so on?

This year, we're going to make zines each month to help each other celebrate the wacky holidays that may be celebrated, or at least noted, for the month. You can find a list of these holidays here.

The zines will be made up of:

Cover Page Like a normal cover page with the title of the zine on it and whatever you like for image and/or text.

6 inside pages Each page will represent one of the wacky holidays for the month. If you want, ONE page may be dedicated to a "month" holiday, which are listed at the top of each month's list. For example, one of the ones for February is Creative Romance Month - fun! On each page, include the name of the holiday and the specific date. Then decorate the page accordingly.

Back Cover This is where you take credit - include your name, SwapBot user name, and any further contact information you would like, or a final message, an interesting or wacky quote, an image, or whatever. You MUST include name and SwapBot username. The rest is up to you.

We're going to send to 5 partners, because once you make the zine you just make photocopies for each additional one, and I'm keeping it in the US for postage reasons. At the end of the year, we'll have quite a collection of interesting holiday zines! Feel free to jump in any time, though. Each month is separate.

I'm putting a rating limit at 4.99, and reserve the right to ban anybody I choose. Newbies only need to have 5 type 2 or 3 swaps, completed and rated 5, to participate. Recent 1's or 3's or negative comments (more than one) will be banned, but I also reserve the right to ban anyone without explanation. Or to not ban someone if we discuss what happened.

I'll be happy to angel once three weeks have gone by, after you and I have tried to work with the non-sender and failed. Hopefully that won't happen!

So join the rest of us in celebrating No Politics Day, National Weatherman's (weatherperson's?) Day, Umbrella Day, and more!

Also, I'll be sending a zine to everybody in the swap! Maybe if we hit like 50 people, I'll rethink. But I can handle this much!
