#IMPORTANT - COMMITMENT TO FUTURE ROUNDS&#13;
&#13;
By joining this swap, you agree to continue participating in the upcoming rounds of the series whenever possible. Consistent participation helps every journal continue its journey and reduces the risk of journals becoming lost or forgotten.&#13;
&#13;
Missing an occasional round is completely understandable&mdash;life happens! However, if you decide that you can no longer continue with the series, **please contact me or the journal&rsquo;s owner** and arrange to return the journal directly to them.&#13;
&#13;
This series is meant to be fun for everyone, so please join only if you are willing to make a reasonable commitment to future rounds. Leaving after only a few rounds without **communicating** can interrupt the journey and disappoint the journal&rsquo;s owner and other participants.&#13;
&#13;
Thank you for understanding!&#13;
