Welcome to the continuation of the Tell Me About Penpal Swaps that were previously hosted by Goobearsmom!

Since I first joined Swap-Bot, the Tell Me About penpal swaps were the one and only swap that I truly looked forward to. When it was announced that the themed swap for May would be the last one I was disheartened. However, with the encouragement of a fellow swapper, I finally decided to keep the swap that I loved so much going.

This swap will work just like all the swaps previous to this one. Each month you will have a specific theme and you will write one letter to your partner about it. You can also include a little treat with your letter if you wish, but it is not required. So now that the basics are out of the way, let's get on to this month's theme!

This is round #6 and the theme for this month is...

Tell me about a new beginning in your life.

This could be anything such as the day you purchased your first house, to the day you graduated college. You could also think of it as the day that you discovered you could do something you never knew you could do before. Interpret the theme as you see fit and have fun with it!

Your letter should be at least two pages long and you may include a small treat with your letter but it is not required.

This swap is international and is only open to swappers with a rating of 4.5 or higher and to those who have no more than two no sends. Newbies are welcome to join, so long as your profile is completely filled out. I will be checking profiles to make sure everyone fits the requirements!

Many thanks to Goobearsmom for allowing someone else to pick up where she left off. Your penpal swaps were the greatest and I hope my continuation of these swaps is a fitting tribute to them!

Since I've never done these before - are they usually light-hearted and happy? The best "new beginning" I can think of in my life involves a lot of deep pain and drama that got me to that point.. and I was wondering if that would be a little too "deep" or "dark" for this swap? Or if something that personal and important to me was just what kind of swap this was. :P

Just wondering. I can think of something else that's a lot happier... XP

These type of letters don't always have to be light-hearted and happy Candy. Whatever your 'new beginning' was, feel free to write about it. I am quite sure you are not the only one who's turning point in life was dark.
