The candy exchange is open to any blogger in the infertility/pregnancy loss/assisted conception/adoption/pregnant or parenting after infertility, loss, or adoption community. I'll also take readers if people are familiar with them in the community. It's simply a matter of trust since personal information will need to be shared during the exchange. This project is always open and you can join/drop out at any time.
Here is how it works:
- Cut-and-paste the form below in a Word document.
- Fill in the information.
- Paste the form into the body on an email and send it to thetowncriers@gmail.com. Emails with attachments generally go into my spam folder and I never see them. If you want me to get your email, don't use an attachment--place the form in the body of the email.
- I will match you with another blogger--either overseas or in your country.
- I will send each blogger the other's information.
- There is a $10 goal (with an $8--12 range) on purchasing candy.
- You will send a package to one another and report when you get the package so I can check off the exchange as complete. It would be nice if you blogged about it.
- Once an exchange is complete, you can request your next match.
