Carpe Librum ~ Traveling "First Paragraphs" R5

Traveling "First Paragraphs" of a book, Round 5 USA

I'm going to go ahead and make this the LAST round, unless you all would like to continue, just let me know!!

This will be an ongoing swap. Please only join if you plan to join in every month, to keep the letters moving. If you have to drop out at any time (provided it's not during an active swap) please contact me, to send me what you have, so I can keep it going. USA only to keep the swap going round quickly, if there is International interest, post below and we'll do an Int'l one as well that will be more spread out over time to account for long delivery times.

For Round 5 ~

If you were in the previous round of swaps, you will have received the swap. What arrived to you was a copy of the first paragraphs of a book and a separate list that had the title of the book, author and the user name of the person who sent it.

In this round, you will now add a NEW book to the list that you received. On the sheet of paper, number the next line with a 5, add your book title, author of the book, and your user name. On a separate sheet, copy the first few paragraphs (or page, whatever is a good stopping point) either by hand or typing it out. Make it a DIFFERENT book than the ones you have sent out so far, since we are sending the swap around we don't want to see the same book over and over, so pick a new one. EACH round must be a completely different book than any you sent in a previous round.

Once you have completed these steps. Put the sheet of books together with BOTH your former partner's swap and your own swap and send it on to your new partner.

Re-cap ~

• On notebook paper, number your entry, adding Title of book, author, & your Swap-Bot username
• On 2nd page, number with 4 and copy first few paragraphs from any book
• If you have joined in before make sure your book is another new one, NO repeats!!
• Send on to your partner

When you receive a swap, It's up to you, but if you can, go ahead and please send it back to the person who started it, so they can see where their swap went. This is not a mandatory part of the swap, as you may not be assigned that first person, but if you are able, I'm sure your partner would like it. Unless, of course, everyone wants to continue, then we'll just keep going on with it.
