Odd Project

Here's an odd project that several journals are promoting today:

1.  Grab the nearest book
2. Open the book to page 23
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

1. The nearest book is Crossing America
2. Page 23 shows a map of the mid 19th -century Pony Express      
    route connecting Midwest and West.
3. The constituency for such governmental action grew larger with
     each passing decade.    Sorry this is kind of boring, but this was
     the nearest book tonight.
4. Done

 So lets continue this experiment.  What book is closest to you?

OK here goes.

Nearest book: Jump Start Your Book Sales
Fifth Sentence:  Need a fresh way to write your book, try storyboarding.
How's that for boring.  :-)
