Journal Entry 1 by reverends from Phillipsburg, New Jersey USA on Saturday, April 10, 2004

My fourth Bookcrossing Journal takes on a journey of it's own design. These journals have no set lists or prospective participants, choosing instead to travel by way of random and unordered instances of karmic synchronicity. If you recieve this journal, simply fill in the first blank page you come across (there is no limit to the number of pages you can fill). What you do with that page is up to you. Most will probably write something, but feel free to draw or paste something if your literary muse isn't speaking to you that week. Then, pass it on to another Bookcrosser. That's it. The last person to make an entry then sends it back to me, at which point I plan on scanning the pages and posting them somewhere online for all of the participants to read and comment on.

Journal Entry 5 by HikingReader from Las Vegas, Nevada USA on Thursday, May 27, 2004

I am trying to find a little creativity in the depths of my brain...wish me luck. I will send on with Austen ring when finished. 

Journal Entry 6 by Antof9 from Lakewood, Colorado USA on Thursday, July 15, 2004

Arrived today with the Jane Austen bookring. FSR44 -- LOVE the flower petals :) 

Journal Entry 7 by Antof9 from Lakewood, Colorado USA on Wednesday, July 28, 2004

So I've written my journal entry and packaged the book up for the next BXer. I love the idea of a "surprise" ring like this, but unfortunately, if a person were not prepared to write and send on, it's possible this could fall into the "wrong hands". And that would make me sad. Fortunately for me, I stumbled on a BXer (and new friend) who is happy to have this book next! I found her in this thread, where I happened to catch another journal that is having a grand old time.

I realize that it's not a complete surprise to have PMd her in advance, but the entries in the journal will still be, and in the interest of having willing participants; might be a good idea going forward.

Travel safely to the north, little journal! 

Journal Entry 8 by jessibud from Toronto, Ontario Canada on Friday, August 06, 2004

Received this today from Antof9 and will put on my thinking cap and try to add my own contribution this weekend.....I love the surprise element of the journal...:-) 

Journal Entry 9 by Wordyone from West Bend, Wisconsin USA on Monday, August 16, 2004

I just received this in the mail from jessibud and in only a brief scan of its pages, I see I've got a lot to live up to! I love the idea, though. I'll give it some thought, do... something, lol, and pass it on to another book and journalling lover. 

Journal Entry 10 by Wordyone from West Bend, Wisconsin USA on Thursday, August 19, 2004

It's on its way to the next participant! Enjoy!

Journal Entry 17 by intry from Turku, Varsinais-Suomi Finland on Wednesday, May 25, 2005

The book arrived yesterday. Thank you everyone for sharing! It is still a mystery why Anneli decided to contact me, and ask if I was interested. *curious* Will have a look at the journal, add a couple of pages and try to find a new temporary home to send it to. 

Journal Entry 18 by asterw from Athens, Attica Greece on Friday, July 01, 2005

I received the journal today. It is the first journal that I get and I like the idea very much! I'll write my "part" and give it to another BC as soon as I find someone who would like to participate. 

Journal Entry 19 by asterw from Athens, Attica Greece on Thursday, July 21, 2005

I gave the journal today in our (Athenian BookCrossers') meeting to travellinglight, who was thinking of starting one of her own when she found out that I already had one in my bookshelf. -She is still going to start her own journal and I'm looking forward to it too!-

Of course, other BookCrossers also saw it in the meeting and they were interested in the journal, so I would guess that it will continue its journal between the Greek BookCrossers for awhile... 

Journal Entry 20 by travellinglight from Athens, Attica Greece on Friday, July 22, 2005

Asterw passed this journal on to me, in yesterday's athenian meetup, knowing that I just love the idea of bookcrossing journals. It is wonderful, really, travelling through other bookcrossers' thoughts... I'll write mine as soon as possible, then make sure that the journal "keeps walking"! Thanx, Asterw, for sharing! And thanx to all previous journalers...
And, of course, I am still planning to start a journal of my own, as Asterw wrote. Bye for now! 

Journal Entry 21 by travellinglight from Athens, Attica Greece on Friday, July 29, 2005

I finally signed in this journal, then passed it on -in yesterday's bc meeting- to Apapsa who likes the idea. Aaouts, who was also at the meeting, liked the idea, too, so this journal will probably have a fourth greek journaler! 

Journal Entry 22 by apapsa from Athens, Attica Greece on Friday, August 05, 2005

I got the book from my friend travellinglight and I 've tried my best in decorating some of its pages. I included some passages from the books that I was reading in the days that I had the book in my possession...

I will now give the book to aaouts so it can continue its travelling... :o) 

Journal Entry 23 by aaouts on Friday, October 07, 2005
