SWAP UPDATE I'm not sure how/why the original got cancelled. I'm reposting for those who want to continue.

This is the fourth reading log swap of 2009. It's pretty simple. Read. Write about what you read. Send your log off to two international partners.

You'll be sending your partners one reading log that contains your thoughts on all the books you read during the months of October, November and Decemberr 2009. The log can be in any paper format.

You need to jot down the title, the author and give a minimum of a one paragraph description about each book and your thoughts.

Feel free to include things like favorite quotes, the author's Web site, etc.

This swap is about what you enjoy reading, not what your partners may or may not like. It doesn't matter what you read: fiction, non-fiction, graphic novels, Manga, zines, audio books, e-books, children's, etc.

I recommend keeping a computer file for your log so it will be easy for your partners to read and so you won't lose it, but your log can be created in ANY format you like. It needs to be paper and mailed via post. The format is up to you: journal, letter, zine, tag book, etc.

The details:

a) international (sent via the post, NOT e-mailed)

b) two partners

c) minimum requirements: one book each month; one paragraph about the book. Author, title.

Voracious readers read more than a single book a month. So there's no maximum. Your reading log should be sent NO earlier than the 15th of December.

The fine print:

Newbies welcome. Rated players need a 4.8 or higher. All participants must have a completed profile. I ban after the swap closes. As both a swap participant and coordinator, I like people to have positive swap experiences, so please no forum drama.

This is fun. I'm enjoying writing about what I'm reading. Makes me think more about the book as I read it.

Greetings all:

This is a quick reminder that we’re closing in on the last reading log swap for 2009. Your logs should not be sent earlier than Dec. 15, but will need to go out by Dec. 30. If you’re having trouble or anticipate problems fulfilling your swap requirement, please communicate with your partners.

The new host for the reading log swaps is kgeslab. Thanks so much to her for taking over. I’ve hosted this swap for two years now, and I’m ready for a little break. I know she’s going to do a fabulous job. The first quarter 2010 swap is already posted. Go join at http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/50184

As always, I’ll be in touch after the swap closes to organize angels. In the meantime, wishing you joy as you celebrate the holidays, holy days and special occasions of winter.
