I realize that we are all utterly swamped at this time of year and I was going to wait to start the Swap until after the Holidays. Then I thought that if I set up the Blog for it NOW and started the sign-up that we could have a month or so to get our books together and casually get to know each other at the site before that we all traded our books.
Stress-free visiting...doesn't that sound nice right about now?!?!?!
Ideally the blog will be a place of inspiration and friendship. A place where we can show photos of the things that we have made from our favorite books; trade stories of favorite authors and projects or just talk about all of the coveted books that we wish that we had.
I am going to be setting the Blog up in the next few days (in between gorging on Turkey, that is!!!) but I wanted to give you all the heads up. I will post the link to the new Blog on Thanksgiving Day.
The actual Swap date will be January 10th 2010...I think that gives us all enough time to recover from the last of the BIG holidays.
How does that sound?
Does that work for all of my friends here?
If so, just comment here and I will collect a list of interested people to transfer over at the Creative Book Exchange Blog where the official sign up will be.
PS. Tell anyone that you feel might be interested too, the more the merrier (and the greater selection of books!)
Hugs to you all.
I really think that this is going to be a lot of fun.
