Description:

Taking the idea from the "Good news from newspapers" swap, I decided to make this one so that each swapper will get from his partner a collection of news taken from local/national newspapers and magazines.

You will collect at least one article per week and stick it in a store bought or handmade journal/notebook. If you read non-English newspapers, you don't have to translate the whole article but just the title and maybe explain in your words what it talks about. The news can be about sports, politics, gossip, music, social life, etc, they can be happy or sad news, but the most important thing is that you have to choose local or national news, so that your partner will know something about the place you live.

EDIT!! Just one person for each State!!

Newbies are welcome with a filled out profile; no 1s or 3s in the latest three months.

Can you use articles from the internet if we don't get a "national" newspaper?

Virou 11/25/2009 #

You can use some articles taken from the net but not for the whole journal.
