Simple pen pal swap - Newbie Friendly! (USA)

There is also an International version of this swap, for those of you interested!

I want to start a penpal, but I'm afraid they wont like what I write. Is there certain things I need to have in an intro letter or can I write whatever I want?

@keribearsmiles - Write about yourself, tell what you're interested in, where you live or where you've traveled, your hobbies, your family, your pets - things like that. Try thinking of what you might like to read from someone. Try jotting down notes of things you'd like to add. The first letters do tend to be the hardest, but if you just relax, I'm sure you'll do fine. :) Remember, this isn't an assignment, it's a friend!
Does this help? If you need more ideas or pointers, PM me, ok? :)

Haha, this actually helped me out and I have been penpalling for years!! The first letters are always the most complicated to write, but they are well worth it!
