Description:
A slam is a booklet similar to a deco or friendship book except that each page will have a question on it, and each signer will answer the question. It gets sent from swapper to swapper until it is full, then it is sent back to the person who it was made for. For this swap you will make 3 new slams to send to your partner. You can make the slams for yourself (so the slam is returned to you when it's full) or you can make the slams for any slam swapping friends you have! The slams can be any style (question, sign if, list etc) Please do your very best and make it a nice slam that people will enjoy to fill in. Slams for this swap must be no larger than 6" x 8". This swap is open to seasoned slam swappers AND to those who have never created or swapped slams before. But please remember that slams are meant to be passed on, so you will need to pass on the slams you receive in this swap. I will be hosting slam swaps every month on Swap-Bot, so if you don't have any other slam swapper friends to pass them on to quickly, please keep joining in my swaps to keep the slams moving around! Swappers must have no recent 1's or 3's and a well filled out profile. If you have any questions, please leave a comment below and I will do my best in answering them promptly! Happy swapping!

I keep seeing these swaps, and I'm confused. When I was in school, a slam book was something girls passed around to write mean things about other people in- I'm assuming that is not what people are passing around on here- but I can't seem to find a swap that explains what, exactly, they are. Can you please enlighten me?

Hi @Nightenbelle - you're right, this type of slam we are swapping is not the type you explained. The slams we swap are like little questionaire books. They vary in size, but are usually postcard sized or up to a full page. They consist of several pages (I use 10) binded together (stapled, taped, sewn etc). The front page will be decorated and will have the name and address of who the slam is made for. The next page is the 'sign in' or 'labels' page where every swapper writes their own name and address. The rest of the pages will have a question on each page for each signer to answer. The last page is a sign out page where you simply sign your name and the date. When there is no more room in the slam it gets returned to the person it was made for.
I hope this explains it a little better! Please let me know if you need any more info or have any other questions! Thanks!! :)
