Issue/Edition 13: All We Share is Monsters


Be careful, 13! Monsters! Next stop, Poland!
As this issue marks the first quarter of this nonsensical experiment, it will also be our first Bounce Back edition.
What, pray tell, is a Bounce Back edition? you ask. Or so I imagine.
Simple: when it reaches the halfway mark (6 months from now), the contributor who holds it will send it back to the person from whom they received it. That person will then send it back to the person who'd posted it to them, and so on, till it makes its way back home, following the same route by which it had come.
SO... everyone gets to see the book twice, and contribute twice. Moreover, they get to see the work of the people who contributed after they did, and more importantly - alter, comment on, respond to, annotate, edit, censor, expand or draw further inspiration from it. They can go back and add more to their own work, with the benefit of all that added thinking time, or they can see how others interpreted their work and respond to that.
That's a Bounce Back issue.
LAST KNOWN DESTINATION: Nowy Sacz, Poland
