I believe Nursie will be taking over the Erotica Swaps for me, so she can adjust the schedule however she'd like!

Thanks Nursie! :hug:

OK my March US only swap will be green cover 2003 or newer!

And the erotica swap is there a thread for the March Madness one yet or not.. I looked didnt see one so I wanted to check and make sure before I start one in a few weeks! Let me know!

April US Swap will be April 25th not sure on theme yet!

No, there is not a thread for the March Erotica Swap, so you've got a clean slate :)

I think April 1st for a Cozy Mystery Swap will be good. I changed it up top as you can see it's in red. ;)

Thanks Cheesy! Yay Cozy! :bananadance:

bump. Must keep on the first page ;)

Maybe since I'm not doing the swap site anymore, I can make a new thread to pin at the top and just keep updating that one. It's a thought.

Sounds like a good plan :)

:wave: The March Teen/YA is going to start on the 20th this time cause I'm going out of town.

You know, I was just saying to the other mods that we need a way of making sure we've gotten the results for each swap each month and I was thinking you might not be doing this anymore. If people used the calendar on the site to add their swaps that'd work, but hardly was using that. I suppose we could make a directive and ask people to add their swap to the calendar, that way we can check every few weeks and make sure none slipped through the cracks.


Shaunie, don't take your site down or anything without letting us know though. Of course, we still getting all the old data back thru 2007, and would probably want to archive the stuff older than that anyway. And people will want to ue the FAQs and such. I'm thinking once we're on the new forum, we can convert some of your pages into some of the static HTML the forum uses and link them over there.

But just know now that it's still a valuable resource, even though you don't nec have to update the swap results part of it, so don't take it away or anything just yet. :P

March YBS will be March 24th!

I guess let me know what I'm supposed to do, if you do what updates or you don't.

aha good to know breezie. ;)

When is the next Non Fiction Swap? :wink:

Is the raiding swap still happening in April? :unsure:

I sure hope so. It was supposed to be April 4 or 5, wasn't it? Giz, honey, let us know when! I'm looking forward to that one. :)

Yes it is - I thought I'd put it in the calender :erm: anyway I will add it to Shauney's post!

I like the idea Shauney had of pinning this post and just updating it :)

Yep me to. Now I had to do a search. Okay I admit not so hard cause it was only on page 2 but it would be nice if we could ad it to the pinned threads.

(although we do have a lot of pinned threads lately due to the changes of this board)

During the Annual BC Convention we usually have Fort Holders Swap. Don't know will that be the case this year as well (I posted a pool) but if there is enough interest swap will start April 18th.

April 13 - Foodie swap!

Yes, this swap that had been postponed from November is finally happening!

Awesome, I see we're pinned! I'll get us update soon I hope if the mods don't beat me to it!

Yay! :bananadance:

There is enough interest I think? :)
Glad to see this one pinned.

:bow: :giggle: :hug:

Hi Can I reserve a swap for May?
May 16th to be exact.
True Crime/True Accounts swap. :bananadance:

May US swap I think will be May 19th (I pushed it up a bit it should have been the 23rd but thats the beginning of Memorial Day weekend)

Also March US swap will be green on cover but I removed any year restrictions for this month..

I will also host a PUF ALS in April if there is interest I will let you know the date when after I post a poll.

Yes, when??? :nod:

And yay foodie swap is coming soon! The book I planned to use in Nov is no longer with me so I have to go find another one... (not that I don't have anything to choose from...)

I hope in April. :)

Boy, it's tough not playing. Soooo many good swaps coming up :cry:

How long till you are back in the game Cats? Is this because you owe to many To be reads? :ph34r:

Just lack of money Marlene. I'm not working atm :( :shrug: Could be a while before I'm back. The good thing is that I am reading lots of TBRs right now.

In MVS vernacular, I'm swapped out. :angry2:

Oh That sucks cat. I miss you in the swaps.
Maybe next time come and just chat with us? :hug:


I see you guys are adding when the info has been updated to the database.
That is very nice and also helpful for me! :kiss:

Just wondering when we will know the criteria for the April US swap...

thinking of maybe getting ahead and having a tbr already read for the occasion (HeHe)

Oh I'm sorry to hear that. I thought your absence in swaps must be the curse of winning sweepstakes :)

Bunny, that one is Nursiegirl42's swap and I don't see that she's posted anything about it yet, so you might drop her a PM and ask her if she's decided about that yet. :)

We could schedule the next chick lit swap for May 9th. I'd say it's tentative. I'll do a sign up thread next week and see if that date works for the participants. :D

OK - will do (just trying to get a head of the game - hehe! :giggle: )

Woops I forgot to post here that May 16th is the Non fiction swap!

I added the teen/ya swap to the calendar as recurring
