Flowers are wonderful and add so much to life!! Their beauty is wonderful to look at and they can smell heavenly, but they can also bring a smile to a face or make someone feel better when they receive them. This journal is about flowers – what do you like about them, what’s your favorite, do you have any special memories associated with flowers??? Share them with us in pictures or writing!! This journal
is already full of wonderful pictures of flowers – it was originally a desk calendar. You can alter the pictures some, but for the most part I’d like them to stay as they are. Feel free to put anything over the calendar pages!
Just please don’t alter the work of others.
When full, please return to Jenny, jfit.

Now recovered!

I recently became part of the awesome community of people called Nerdfighters. If you don’t know what a Nerdfighter is, in short it is a fan of John Green, the author of Looking For Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, and Paper Towns. However it is so much more! So I created this journal where Nerdfighters can share a bit about their experience being a Nerdfighter, what Nerdfighting means to them, things they have done for Nerdfighting, Nerdfighter events they have attended, what kind of Nerdfighter they are, and anything related to Nerdfighting. The journal is made from an old copy of a book I found in my school’s free book pile called, Best Wishes by Harold E. Kohn. If you are a Nerdfighter you will understand the significance of the title and why I chose to make this book into a journal. Journalers should take as many pages as they want to cover over the original writings of Kohn with their own, along with any other photographs, drawings or whatever fits on the page.
Rules:
- Only take 1-2 weeks to make your entry
- Do not damage or add to anyone else’s entries in anyway shape or form. You may have as many pages as you want to express yourself as long as you follow that rule.
- When you have finished with the journal please re-list it on BookMooch, or if you know of someone who might be interested in putting in an entry tell that person and reserve the journal for him or her.
- Include your name, your BookMooch ID, Nerdfighter page (if you have one) and if desired a picture of you.
For more information on what a Nerdfighter is and how to become one visit the following sites:
When the journal is full let me know and I will mooch it back home. Thanks for contributing to this journal and I hope you have fun making your entry

This is a small book I made from pages torn from a book about therapeutic empathy. Find a word or phrase on the page to inspire your art–alter the book accordingly!

This is a hardback journal to be passed around from Boomoocher to Bookmocher and each person adds their own alterations to the book within a 2 week time period and then posts it in their inventory to be mooched by someone else. This process continues until the book is full. When the book becomes full, the last moocher contacts the originated (username: CelticMaiden) and mails it home for CelticMaiden to keep.
The theme of the book is Naughty/Nasty Nursery Rhymes, there please take a nursery rhyme per page or two and decorate the page about the nursery rhyme, If you can feel free to “twist” the words or visual aspects a bit, to add a bit of “flair” and humor. No porn though and please do not destroy or write on other peoples entries. Use any medium to decorate.
Any queries please feel free to contact CelticMaiden.
– CelticMaidenThis journal was listed, requested, request rejected and the creator’s account closed. In other words it was never issued.
