Description:

Hello, this is a swap for those of us who enjoy writing with dipping pens. If you have not tried using a dip pen before grab a holder, a nib a bottle of ink and give it a try.

These should be decent letters in length (at least 2 sides of A4 or 4 sides of A5- at any rate an equivalent of any other size of paper). Please don't make it just a small note. This swap isn't necesarily aimed on finding a pen pal, more at practicing your skills. Trying new pens, ink etc. You mat obviously write an introduction letter, who knows you may find a penpal. You can also write about your day/month, things you have planned for thenear future, your country, your partner's profile etc. Be creative :-)

I have put a minimum rating of 4.95 for entry as I don't want people to be flaked on. I have also decided to allow only swappers with 10 completed (and rated) type 2/3 swaps. If you have any recent ones of threes I will investigate and decide on a case by case basis if you should be allowed to participate in the swap. In addition to this if I have any concerns at all I will ban people from the swap. If there are any problems I will angel once you have marked as a one and told me about it. Please let me know of any problems.

Does a glass pen qualify for this swap? It is a dip pen, technically speaking...

I have wooden dippens myself, like in the picture example. I never hold a glas pen in my hand before, I would love to try it and see how it works. @flyingfox a glass pen would qualify :-)

I only have a cheap plastic dip pen - all I could find here, and green ink to dip it in. Never tried to write with a dip pen before. I may be hooked!
