I'm all for positive thinking. the books that have gone AWOL are not gone 4-ever. they will find their way home just trust in that! Yes, busy schedules do cause delay, maybe the person who has it is filling it with some very interesting stuff to read!

As for the two that aren't mine? One I'm working on and the other I'd prefer to see if I can track the owner first. She was young when she joined the community and I was the second or third recipient of the journal. It's not gone beyond here because I want to confirm her mailing address if I can before sending it off.
As for the topics that were circulating and the journals that still haven't appeared? There's been topics from poetry to an introduction of yourself, to letters to yourself (write a letter to yourself), sharing artwork, what's your biggest fears, recipes, travel tales and much more. Since joining I've had over 40 journals come through my hands and move on to others but unfortunately some where along the way the community kind of drifted and the members along with it so...not sure what will happen now.
The journals of mine I got back?
One's called "Then and Now" and there's a second version of this one floating around out there somewhere because I had thought this journal lost when it had vanished for over six months. I created a second version of it and sent the second version out but that hasn't reappeared. I do however have my original journal that went around. Also unfortunate is only about three people ever recieved it and made entries. It's a basic pick two or three different years in your life and write about them. Sort of a write about who you are now and who you were.
The other journal of mine that came back is called "Talking Pictures" and the original purpose/theme of it was I put in a picture and wrote something about it then put in a picture for the next recipient to write about. Somewhere along the line that original premise of the journal got a little jumbled and some people put in favorite pics and why they were favorites but it's still interesting. : D
That one actually made it to about seven different people and still has plenty of space to be filled. : )
If you're interested in one of them I can send it to you so you can see how the journals are basically laid out and the entries and stuff and can add an entry of your own. It's up to you though...not much of a start but there are only about three other members who have checked in with journals in the last six months so it's better than nothing I suppose.
