Default the GREAT journal challenge!!!

Hi everyone,

I wanted to challenge everone to read and post in 3 jounals you have never posted in before. You don't have to read the whole thing, just some of it and reply to what you've read. Also if someone writes to you write something back in there journal even if it's just hi. I think this will be a great way to get to know some of the people you normally wouldn't and who knows maybe you'll make some good friends besides the 3 or 4 people you write to everyday. I started on one tonight and will do 2 more tomorrow.



Jon

Very cool. Kind of like a chain letter! This is how I found a lot of my journal buddies too. A fun way to find journals is also to click on someone with similar stats as you. They'll often have things in common!

Plus... who doesn't love to see new faces in your journal!

That is a great idea....I started my journal yesterday and sent it to my big brother and he responded . Let me tell ya...it is a real tear jerker...I cried for about 5 minutes....(good cry, not sad) but I love to see that there are people that do read it....I have been posting more also since I know what a rush it is to see other peoples point of view...thanks for such a great suggestion.

Have a great weekend everyone,
Penny

Hi Jon,

Great idea! I visited a few people and had a few new visitors myself. We should make this a monthly challenge.

.....love this idea - I just started a journal on Wednesday - so am sure hoping somebody one will stop by mine!

I have been pretty frustrated at not losing, and maybe someone will see something to help me
