"Someguy," an artist in San Francisco, took 1000 journals, stamped them with numbers and information on getting them back to him, and left them in public places--bus stations, bathrooms, on top of newspaper dispensers.

That was in 2000. Very few of the journals came back. But those that did were crammed with drawings, writing, poems, ideas, maps, and raw creativity.

Andrea Kreuzhage, a film producer and director, made a DVD about the project.

I saw the film and knew I had to participate in a project like this. Andrea invited me to join the 1000 Journal Extension--teachers who manage and circulate journals, and, in my case, teach journaling as well.
