Description:

This swap is made for those who consider themselves a little odd, weird, strange, unusual, out of the ordinary, or just plain different to find another like-minded individual for the purposes of penpalling and letter writing! My hope is that you will meet people to write with that you feel you can relate to and understand on levels others may not be able to!

For this swap, you will have TWO (2) partners. You will write each partner an introductory letter that is at least three (3) pages in length describing yourself in any way you'd like. This can include your likes/dislikes, what a typical day is like for you, about your family or where you live, your hobbies, and anything else you'd like to share about you. Just make sure the letters will give your partners a good picture of who you are!

Please use some nice stationery or paper to write the letters on, no plain white or notebook paper! We want these letters to be nice to look at as well as read! If there is anything else you want to do to your letter, like decorate the envelope or include something like stickers, feel free, but that is not required. Don't forget to put your swap-bot username and the swap name in the letter!

Since you'll be sending to two people, you will have the potential opportunity of FOUR new penpals (the two you send to, and the two sending to you)! If you want to write back to those you received letters from, wonderful! That said, nobody is obligated to write back unless they want to - sometimes people just don't match up.

This swap is open internationally, and to those with at least a 4.9 rating. Newbies with well filled out profiles are welcome, too, but I will be checking all participants and banning if need be! I will also angel if it is needed.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

(Also - I offer no set definition or judgement of the words I've used above; it's up to you to decide if you feel or describe yourself as weird or strange etc. ~ anyone who does is welcome to join!)

Just an update here; it is three days past deadline to send now (August 13th) and a few have not sent their letters. I will be keeping up with this to make sure everyone gets their letters, whether it's from the partner they were assigned (which will be late by this point) or from me as an angel. If you have any issues or concerns, please send me a PM directly! Thanks for participating in my swap. :)
