I'm new to this do we * make the zine with something on all pages leaving blank spaces for our partner to complete * then does the partner return the completed zine ? * Do we nominate what is to be filled in - eg: illustrate, answer questions, fill in blanks, or would this be obvious from the type of zine made ? *How does one rate this type of swap ?

so sorry! I have been quite sick!! You send your partner a zine that they can keep and fill in themselves or they can just keep it and do what they want with it. I usually don't fill mine in physically... but mentally I go through it and fill it in (in my mind) that way I can pass it on if I wish or keep it and fill it out again at a future time. You do NOT send it back to the person already filled in. You send your partner a zine that they can fill in (if they wish) but they won't send it back to you. You will rate your partner a 5 if they send you a Fill in the Black zine.

Are you going to have another swap where the blank zines get filled and sent out to partners? I really want to see what people come up with to answer my "blanks." ") Thanks, Sherry

thanks for your answer here and PM like AmookislandCreations I'm still "watching" and trying to work it out

@AmookIslandCreations So do you want the person to fill out their own or one that they have received previously.... or have their partner mail it to them and then they mail it back??? Explain to me what you are thinking.

mine is done...going to copy it this weekend

One way would be to have the partners send back the completed ones. I would be willing to send mine in a SASE, if postage was an issue.

Or set up a swap, where the partners fill out one they previously received, make 2 copies and send out one to the originator and one to a new partner.

I have my copies made and they will go out on Monday (We don't have mail service here on Sat)

Hugs from Alaska, Sherry
