I've been scouring swapbot on the lookout for a good bookish/letter swap for about a week now with little luck, so I've decided to host my own! Basically, for this swap, you will write a letter to one partner and geek out about books. There is a list of 12 questions below to be answered in your letter. If you do not have an answer for one of them or want to change the question, you can do so as long as you indicate that (A) you have changed the question and (B)why. Feel free to write about more than just the set out questions. You will be required to write 2 pages(or more!), on standard letter size (8ΓΒ½X11ΓΒ½), add more sheets if you are using smaller paper. Just remember, you are writing about something you love to someone who enjoys reading, so use your common sense, the more you write, probably the better! :P Your letter can be handwritten or, if you don't think your partner will be able to read your handwriting, typed. This is an international swap. I will be checking ratings and profiles before assigning partners, no recent unexplained 1s or 3s will be accepted. QUESTIONS: 1- Do you have a reading goal for 2016? 2- Why that goal? 3- What is your preferred time or setting to read ( ex: before bed, on the train, between classes, in your favourite bean bag etc.) 4- What was a book you read in 2015 that surprised you and why? 5- How do you choose the books you want to read? 6- Do you prefer Paperbacks, Hardcovers, ebooks, Used books or Brand new books? 7- Where is your preferred place to shop for books? 8- What are you currently reading? 9- Is there a book ( new or new to you) that you are anxiously awaiting? 10- What do you do to broaden your reading horizons? 11- Do you already know which books you plan to read for 2016? 12- What are some of the books you read in 2015 and how did you like them? This swap can lead to being penpals if you like, but you are in no way obliged to reply to your partners letter. Most of all, write your little heart out, decorate as you wish and have fun! :) |
