Description:

In this swap you will have two partners. You will write a minimum of one paragraph describing 4 of the following things. Try to be as detailed as possible. Include your feelings, what you see, make a history for your characters if at all possible. For those that are feeling particularly inspired write a whole story using one of the writing prompts.

The details - This swap is open to newbies with full profiles and anyone with a 4.5 rating or above and no mention in the bad swapper forum, or recent no-sends. I will angel for anyone who does not receive, but in order to prevent that happening I do reserve the right to ban people who haven’t logged in for awhile, have late swaps, etc. I will contact you before banning to hear your side of the story, but it is your responsibility to explain why you are behind.

This can be handwritten or typed, but MUST be sent through the postal mail. If you e-mail your stories you will not have met the qualifications of the swap and your partner will be encouraged to rate you accordingly.

Could we take the 4 prompts and write one story? Already ideas are swimming in my head :o)

I think that would be fine knostantine but please somehow mark where you are using the four prompts by bolding etc., so your partners know what is going on.

Four short pieces are en route to my partners. I had fun writing them and hope you enjoy the reads.

For some reason I do not understand I see on my "view" it says sent, then in small letters, {oops, mark that unsent}, don't know where that came from or if it refers to me but I definitely did sent my letters out quite a long time ago.

Junemoon, that's just a link for if you accidentally marked your end of the swap as sent.

In addition to the bike itself, there are a variety of accessories and gear that are important for BMX riders. Helmets are essential for protecting your head during falls and crashes, and pads are important for protecting your knees and elbows. https://bmxbikeshub.com/best-bmx-bikes-under-200/
