With words or art hint, imply, or suggest something sensual. Use lush language or rich color/texture to let us feel all the senses. Example: write or show food so luscious you want to roll in it. Nudity is OK, but not overt sex. This is more about the wind over your skin than flesh on flesh, more R than X. The book itself is just a diary with lines, but we know it has hidden potential; I’d be grateful if someone would make some suitable cover art, too. Please turn it around in the usual two weeks, then slink it back to NovelCat when full.

Decide ahead of time on some unit of 47 that you will use for measurement, such as 47 steps, 47 minutes, 47 pages, 47 stop signs, 47 swallows of juice, 47 swallows flying under the bridge, etc., then choose a random time to begin and take your 47 actions or count your 47 items, and then make some art or write some stream of consciousness on whatever the world offers you right there, right then. Please turn it around in the usual two weeks, and return it to NovelCat after 47 people have made entries.

View your life through Alice’s Looking Glass, or through the wrong end of a telescope, or through a kaleidescope or a fun house mirror, then write about it or make some crazy/wild art. The book itself is just a diary with lines; I’d be grateful if someone would make some suitable cover art, too. Please turn it around in the usual two weeks, then return it to NovelCat when it’s dizzy.

Write your death poem or your own famous last words. This book was handmade in Indonesia; the pages are perhaps made of banana (only one side is smooth), and the cover is made of large leaves, like lotus, maybe. It’s a little fragile, but so is life. Please turn it around in the usual two weeks, and return to NovelCat when it’s … finished.

This is an art journal, where each person will add one small item to each page that is almost the same but not quite–perhaps a small aligator that is looking left or looking right or in a different spot on the page; perhaps a red left spiral that stays red but spirals right, then is a blue right spiral, and so on. Choose something small that you can repeat and still vary 25 times. Please turn it around in the usual two weeks, and return to NovelCat when full. (If it’s pretty full, but you still think maybe somebody could squeak in one more design or word, but the next person to mooch it thinks there’s not enough space, I’ll return a point to the final person who didn’t get to do any art.)

This is strictly art, and strictly geometrical. Take a double page spread and glory in shapes and colors that are not at all representational. The book needs cover art, too. Please turn it around in the usual two weeks, then return it to NovelCat when it’s full.

This journal was mooched by a member who has been inactive for two and a half years and has not responded to my mails. It must be regarded as lost.

The journal is called “Nightmares“, and I’d like it to be whatever you want. Please do not destroy the book, but be as creative – or as weird, quirky, and odd as you want. I don’t mind. No limits, no objections… Do what you like!

This journal is now back in circulation.
