Hi All

I'm in a swap at the momant called 7 words Swap in the general stream of swaps and so have asked the person may I borrow idea but change it a little. Firstly fitting 7 words into a story is proving rather hard for me at present. So ours will be 5 words. So what will happen here when you join swap you put your 5 words down here Then you will when the names drawn take your partners five words and write your partner a story using the 5 words your partner left below.Can be short story or what ever you like as long as it is more then one page and as long as you use all 5 words in story. So please join in and have some fun.

Be warned I think if you like a challenge this will prove to be. Fitting some of words into my story was not easy as I had to look up what they ment first and fitting them in is difficult so if you just wont to go to dictonary and close your eyes and pick a word or so of your words feel free but some easy ones as well ok please.

Does everyone get the same words?

Or do you plan to send everyone different words?

Will you send the words as soon as the sign up date is past and partners assigned?

What if each person who signs up just posts five words in this comment section, then when partners are assigned we use the words our send-to partner posted? That seems easier and is fair as swap-bot is the thing that will do the assigning. It will be easier for you too.

Love the word "morganatic".

Sorry Honey - blond moment :-)

Angel, Hon, I love your "blond moment," we're so freaking politically correct in the US of A we only use the ageist phrase "senior moment" and that should be outlawed soon.
