Let's write a story! Email Round 4 private swap

Continued as a private swap now, rules like the last rounds :)

For this swap, we will write a story together. Each person who joins this round will have one partner, International, and we will email our stories to our partners. Hopefully this will help us keep track of our stories, and allow lots to participate. :) This will be an EMAIL swap, sent to your email address on file, NOT sent through swap-bot messages.

The first line of your story should include your swap-bot ID, and be sure to put the swap name in the subject line of the email. You may join as many or as few rounds of this swap as you wish, but if you decide not to continue, please contact the host to return the portion of the story that you have.

If this is your first round:

You will be starting a story. You will write 2-4 paragraphs of a story, then email that story start on to your partner once partners are assigned. If you get your story start emailed on time, you will rate your partner a 5. You will add to that story start, then pass that on in round 4. I will allow 4 weeks between sign up date and send by date to give everyone a chance to write their story.

If this is not your first round:

You should have a story start from the previous round. For this round, you will add to that story, 3-6 paragraphs, and send that document on to your partner in this round of the swap. If you did not receive a story start from the previous round, you need to contact your partner (& host), and ask for a resend. Please remember we are sending through email, and please check your spam and junk mail folders.

The story:

Your story should be written in English, but your writing does not need to be 'perfect'. If your English, spelling or grammar aren't great, it's ok. This is for fun, not for a 'grade'. OK?

For a story start, you can choose any topic. When writing, keep the blood, sex & gore to a minimum. If you would like a swap with those options, please feel free to use this idea and start your own story. :)

If you can't join the next round, please contact @USAFwife or me and we will work something out. You don't have to join each round, but we want to keep track of our stories, so we can get them back in the end.

Sign up for the swap by Friday Jan 12th. Send by Friday Feb 9th .
