Description: | |
Here's your chance to introduce yourself in photos. For this swap, you'll write an introductory pen pal letter and include 10 photos of yourself - all different, and all showing a different characteristic or interest about yourself. For example, if you like to cook, you can show a picture of yourself in the kitchen. If you like sports, you can include a picture of you participating in a game, etc... The idea is to have the photos support and document your description and introduction in your letter. You can be creative and have fun with this! If you'd like to give a little history, you can include a baby picture of yourself and talk about when and where you were born. With 10 pictures, and your introductory letter, hopefully your partner will get to know you well and want to write back - that's up to each person individually. I suggest creating your letter in Word and sending it as an attachment, but that's also up to you. Be sure your letter doesn't go to your partner's spam folder or bounce back if the photos are too large for a simple email. I'm giving a little extra time for this swap to be sent, since taking 10 pictures in different settings will take a little planning. Your letter should be sent no later than June 29th. It's ok to use photos you have on-hand, but if you're starting from scratch, I hope you'll put some effort into your letter! These photos should be just of you - not your family or friends, or pictures of your house. I hope you'll participate and know that you'll have time to send your letter on time when you sign up. Newbies are welcome - this is a great way to get started! The swap is open to anyone with no 1's or 3's in the past year. Thanks for participating and please email or PM any questions! |
