The Happy Thought Project
So I want to start something.
It’s a little silly.
But I look at books like Post Secret and think, “Man, that’s cathartic to read.”
So I want to do something like that, but this time around, using ‘Happy Thoughts’.
The little nonsense things, the great big meaningful things, the barely notice it til they’re gone things that make you genuinely smile.
Ideally I’d have people mail them to a PO Box, but I don’t have a PO Box… yet.
So I’d like to initially start this project by asking for photos with as little or as much writing as possible. If you’re good in Photoshop, you can make it look like a post card.
If we get enough submissions, I’d like to share them on this and my blog every Thursday.

Happy Thought Thursday.
Eventually, I’d like to collate them all into a book, both digital and physical.
All Happy thoughts should be submitted to [email protected].
The bigger they are, the better (better to shrink an image than try to enlarge it) but please try to format them as 300dpi and no smaller than 400×400.
Please write “Happy Thought” in the subject line. You may submit more than one, especially in the beginning when we’re trying to get the ball rolling.
Part of me wants to keep it anonymous, and part of me would love to attribute them to twitter handles.
So for now please indicate if you would prefer to have a handle listed or if you’d like to remain anonymous. If there is no indication of either, I will assume you wish to be anonymous.
