Number of swap partners:3
Description:

I love penpals and I love getting things in the mail, but sometimes it can get a bit expensive, especially if you write long letters or you're attempting to make that first connection. I'm sure we have all joined penpal swaps where the expectation has been to get a letter back, but sometimes we just don't click...and you've spent what soon adds up to a lot of money sending out introductions and getting nothing in return. Email will never take away the joy of getting something in the mail but this swap is designed to cut out the wasted postage on writing to someone that won't write back.

In this swap you will send your introduction via email, you will include a mailing address and your partner then has the option of either responding via email or snail mail. The aim...cut out the cost of sending letters that will get you nowhere while still making a penpal.


Rules and requirements:
Send your partner a four paragraph introduction email
Include your home address
Newbies are allowed
No recent or unexplained 1's or 3's (I do check but I will not message you before banning you so message me first if you think there might be any doubt)
I will Angel if required

Sorry, I've been bedridden with the norovirus, Assigning partners now and changing the deadline to reflect the lateness. Sorry for the inconveniance.

I got flaked on an email swap! Lucky or unlucky? But I was really hoping to find some penpals from this swap. :(

When the partners you sent to, don't reply or rate you and haven't been only since they joined the swap (I noticed they didnt mark theirs as sent either), does that mean I am flaked?
