The Creativity Swap (Come Join!)

I’m launching a monthly Creativity Swap in this pod, and you are all invited to participate! (In fact, your participation is needed, valued, and giddily anticipated.)

Here’s how this works:

- This is a monthly swap. You can sign up to participate in just one month, or several.

- Each new month, you’ll be assigned one swap partner from within this pod. You’ll make your partner a small gift of creative inspiration, and they’ll make one for you. By the end of the month, you’ll swap them by mail.

- You can make anything to swap that you like. There are limitless options: you might make a postcard, or a bookmark, or a greeting card. You might make a tiny booklet of inspiring sayings. You might write a poem. You might share a passage from your most-loved book. You could also embroider, paint, draw, bead, or anything else you do. The only specification for this swap is that whatever you make, it should be able to fit into a 6x9 envelope (or smaller) for mailing.

If you’ve never participated in a swap before, it’s a wonderful way to meet new people, and a nice stretch for your creative muscles.

How to join? Simply message me with the following information:

- Your Name

- Your mailing address (which will be shared only with your swap partner, and never in these forums).

- Any special considerations you may have (such as an allergy to cats, for example).

To get us all started, the deadline for signing up for the July swap will be Wednesday, July 5th. After that date, I’ll notify you of your swap partner, and you’ll have the rest of the month to make your tiny gift of creativity.

I hope you’ll share your creative self with us!

Looking forward to hearing from you,
DG

Count me in for at least a month.  Where should I send the  rest of the info?  I'm not familiar with how Zaadz works so I don't know if this is a public or private reply.
