I have a vague urge to do some kind of Moleskine project. For example, I break in a new Moleskine, then send it on to someone. That someone fills up however many pages they want, with whatever they want - writing, journalling, poetry, photos, art, collages, ticket stubs, postal stamps, recipes, lolcats, whatever. And when they're done, they send it on to the next person, and so on and so forth until it arrives back home. And then maybe I could scan it for people so they can see what came after their part?

Would people be interested in doing something like that?

It's a nifty idea.

The other option, instead of scanning at the end would, I suppose, be that each person involved purchases his or her own notebook to start with and then all notebooks are sort of sent around in a circle until every has his or her own back. The problem there, of course, is a) shipping costs adding up and b) a lot of notebooks in the mail to keep track of, along with the suck if one or two gets lost.

But I throw the possibility out anyway, and I would be interested either way, yes.

Yeah, I thought about the everyone-adds-a-notebook thing, and as well as the shipping problems, there's also the fact that having to fill up pages in a whole bunch of notebooks might, mmm... take away from the sort of 'spontaneous creative snapshot' type aspect of it? If that makes sense? (Maybe not.)

*considers* I can see it taking away the spontaneous element if someone did the same thing for each notebook, yes, but I think if when each notebook came the recipient sat down and wrote/drew/whatever something on whim that it would work out all right.

Admittedly, that doesn't address potential shipping problems. But I think the spontaneity could be preserved.

I want to so badly, but I also realize that me/the post office is a coming together that never ever ever occurs ...

I'm so in.

I tend to suck at this kind of thing, but the idea sounds so nifty I have to be in!

Wooo! I'm in! Maybe we should make sure that everyone knows when I have it, though, to make sure it moves on in a timely manner? I think I have a problem. :[
