Are any of you familiar with this?
I'm awed by this!
This is a huge international endeavor with loads of participants!
I love this concept!
This is absolutely fascinating!

Like your artistic problem
Ha, Doreen! I experienced your artistic problem in connection with the bookcrossing project. When I first heard about it I got all excited, joined, dropped off a paperback copy of On The Road in the Porter SQ subway stop in Cambridge, MA - and then promptly lost interest in the whole thing, never went to a meeting or followed up to see whatever became of that copy of OTR.
That said, this IS a cool thing. Fascinating, really, a classic endeavor for the internet age.
Similar, in a way, to the 1000journals project.

Reminds me of a hostel in which I stayed in Scotland. A bookshelf in the common room for this express purpose. Can't carry too many books around while backpacking, after all. Pick some up. Leave some behind. Great stuff. Very karmic.
This is the centre of the universe.
My tribe is gathered around me.
Behold me.
I AM.
