I'm still here!

Just wanted to let you guys know that - lots to tell - will be back tonight or tomorrow!

Love,

Claudia :)

PS: I gave Journal #8 to my brother over a week ago...still dawdling on the one for Oprah...sending one to Switzerland tomorrow! ooooh....aahhhh...

PPS: Someone, anyone, please post a comment, whether you have one of the journals or not! Tell us what's going on with you!

The Ninth One...makes a dramatic exit...

Today was the final day of a four week 'Acting for Film & TV' intensive that I was teaching at St. Lawrence College in Brockville.

Above are five of the ten graduating students in the 3 year Music Theatre Program. Each of the ten students will add their thoughts to journal #9.


This is Jeff - he will be the first one (after me) to write in la lovely journal above...and then, who knows where it will go...

The Sixth One: signed, sealed & delivered!

You can't see me...

This is the last journal of the original six...

...but the second last to be passed on

(still have to finish #4 for Oprah!)

The lovely journal that you see above was given

to my best friend, the raging bull or the bull

who doesn't rage...(just trying to make a 'clever'

connection to the beautiful bull that you see on the back!)

Best friends often get gipped 'cause they are 'the best friend'
(which means that they are unconditionally there for you),

so while she would obviously receive a journal, it didn't

become obvious to me until I experienced a little personal drama.

I have since heard that this journal will be travelling to Mexico!!!

A Photo of The Second Journal

This journal arrived in Vancouver, BC on February 5...
but before I let it go, I took this lovely photograph.


I wonder what's inside...

Seeking Journal Sponsorship!!!

My journal writing comes with a price...uck...I just called someone at Paper Blanks (the first six journals happen to be from this company) to see whether or not they'd be interested in sponsoring this fantabulous journal adventure...well...it turns out 'David' (da man in charge of saying 'yay' or 'nay') will be out of the country until Friday or Monday (darn, he could have taken a journal with him)!!! Fingers crossed. Out of journals. Need more. More journals will come my way...they will...

Thanks Universe!

love,
c :)

PS: The most up-to-date info for each journal:

Journal #1. Handed by me to Kate D. & Ben W. -- handed to a woman & her daughter on the NYC Subway by Ben W. -- wonder what the journal is doing now...

Journal #2. Mailed to my mentor in Vancouver, BC -- it arrived at her school yesterday

Journal #3. Mailed to a writing genius in Toronto, ON -- it arrived in his hands yesterday morning
(I only know the above thanks to the Purolator tracking system, ha, ha...but I do wonder about their reactions)

Journal #4. Almost complete -- sending this to Oprah!!! www.oprah.com -- gosh it'll be fun when she reads this, it's a 'Dear Oprah' letter, but in a journal - oh the excitement!

Journal #5. Left at CBC Radio in the studio after my interview on the morning of Feb. 4

Journal #6. Completed - just need to give it to the recipient...stay tuned for that info...dun, dun, dun...
