My troll (check out the avatar) is itching to see the world, but this year I can’t afford to trip over my own two feet, let alone escort Troll to some exotic destination. Therefore, I am giving you, the members of the Lit. Forums the opportunity to send Troll around the world.
Anyone who wants to host Troll for a portion of her tour is committing to the following:
- Will provide their general location to me via PM so I can map out Trolls route in order to minimize postage expense for all participants.
- Will contribute entries to Troll’s travel diary (which will accompany Troll through her journey). This entry can be as truthful or as fanciful as you like.
- Will contribute either a photo, drawing, or some other souvenir to the journal representing their part of the world. Do you live in Paris? Pose Troll in front of the Eiffel Tower. Don’t have a camera? Draw Troll at a sidewalk café in Montemartre. Don’t want to visit the tourist traps? How about doing a postcard instead? Again, be creative and use your imagination.
- Will be willing to incur the postage costs to send Troll to her next destination.
- Will be willing to share their snail mail address with the person selected to send Troll to them.
- Will receive the snail mail address of the person they are to send Troll to and live up to the responsibility being entrusted to them by receiving that address (no stalking, no spam, no sweepstakes entries, no bogus pizza orders).
By accepting these terms, you will get to enjoy about a week of Troll’s kind company, read the journal entries of all who hosted Troll before you, and be part of something that’s really meaningless in the long run and yet kinda cool.
Once Troll comes home to me, I will set up a blog so that everyone will get to read the complete journal and see all the photos, drawings and other souvenirs that Troll brings home with her.
Anyone interested in participating should post here over the next two weeks (I know some people are still figuring out where they will be over the summer). Then I will chart out Troll’s route and send her on her way.
Any questions, please contact me via PM.
