Description:

I love pen-palling, but I'm pretty tired of writing intro letters. So, to spice things up, I thought it would be interesting to create a pen-pal introduction in the from of a mini-'zine. The size and number of pages is sender's choice, but the content should be equivalent to a one page introduction letter.

Newbies welcome with a filled out profile.

All others 4.9 or higher with no recent no-sends.

I will angel if needed.

Can you explain what a zine is? I haven't seen one yet.

Here is a tutorial on how to make a mini-'zine: http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/mini_zine

It doesn't have to be in that format, though. Small individual sheets bound together in some way would work just fine, too! :)

Ooh! So cute! :)

Disclaimer to my partner: This will be my first attempt at these so please do not rate low if it sucks by your standards. :) I really will try my best to impress, but I am a beginner at this. Hugs!

Can you staple pages together?

Knitsicle 05/14/2010 #

@Gofeen Yes! One of my favorite books sent to me was stapled.

Traceyk - I'm in the same boat but I like trying new things. This sounds really interesting. I'm going to give it a shot.
