Description:

A swap to ease us into February (Letter Writing Month)!

In the comments below, list at least 5 themes/topics/questions you'd like your partner to write about. If you don't list any, your partner can write whatever they feel like.

Write one letter to your partner from a theme they pick. The amount of text should be about one side of an A4 or Letter/home printer size paper, approximately a few paragraphs.

The twist? Don't use letter paper, memo sheets, aerogrammes, or notecards to write it. Make sure your letter is readable. No tiny text or writing on a background with not enough contrast.

Some ideas for what to use instead:

  • calendar pages
  • photos
  • paper bills/receipts
  • flyers/ads
  • postcards
  • planner pages
  • book pages
  • fabric

Feel free to get creative with what you write on or if you'd like to decorate your letter!

Include one flat surprise for your partner. The surprise isn't profile-based, but avoid their dislikes.
