    Sounds fun!

    If we wanted to put something online eventually, couldn't each member scan their own work before they send it off, so we have a complete copy? If someone didn't have a scanner, the next person to get it could do their own and the previous person's.

    Also, more people probably have a digital camera than a scanner, and can take a picture of their page if they want to, instead of a scan, before they send it along!

    I went to pick up the books today, and am going to start two books for this project.

    I think the first will go to Karen and Paul.

    How will we coordinate who gets what, when?

    I think we can have peope sign up and do it in that order, or?

    Toss out ideas!

    I will start the books by sending them out and putting a few dollars in for the next person to use as postage, Then they can donate towards the next person's postage, I think a 4-5 dollars would do?

    If the postage is less maybe the person hosting can pitch in the difference to keep the envelope at the 4-5 dollar level, to keep the package going?


    I will paste an envelope at the back for the money-Maybe just bills, no coins?

    I also thought about having people post on the thread the order of wanting to host it. Would anyone object to starting out in the order that people posted on the thread?

    Are their any Europe/overseas people who would want to host it, that way we can assure they get a chance to contribute?

    There are 200 pages in each book I was thinking of maybe 3-4 pages alloted per person?

    I think I was overthinking the whole process. The less I think about it the more fun it will be?

    Sounds cool to me Richard, I'll be in that for sure.
    Maybe if it comes to Australia for instance, then it should be sent on to all the other Aussies in the scheme whilst it's here....and then on to Europe to be done by all Europeans for instance....and so on and so on....

    Should we compile a list of what order the book goes in then? And maybe make a list of the date when it will be shipped out, or when it should be shipped out I should say. I like organization

    I'd love to do something like this.

    How about when the first book is full post it online, then start a second?

    I can't wait to get it!

    I have also moved and I can't remember if I've given my address to anyone, so please let me know before you send it
