Description:

Write a short fictional story about a fictional character and send to one partner

The story is to be written about a day in the life of a person. You can be as creative as you wish throwing a lot of ups and downs at your character just be sure to be descriptive with how your character deals. Type and print your story so the full story is legible.

Since this is a short story swap please use more than 1,000 words to write your story. If the story is less that 1,000 words its considered flash fiction which is not the aim of this swap.

Lets recap the requirements!

  • A fictional short story (more than 1,000 words) that depicts a single day of a characters life

  • this is not an email swap you will be mailing your story snail mail.

  • Story must be typed and printed

  • Give your story a title! Give it a life!

  • No flash fiction or "short-shorts" please

  • Send on time

  • Include a greeting to your partner so they know who to rate.

This swap is international since you will only be sending a few pages in an envelope as well as a little note letting your partner know who to rate.

Story can be comedic, serious, and can contain adult language. If you do not wish to receive a story that could possibly contain adult content or language please do not join.

Since you are in the group already you obviously meet the rating requirement! Have lots of fun with this and encourage other swap-botters to join our group so they can take part in the swap.

Shayzilla, dear - I am committed to this group, so that means I HAVE to join all the swaps (my own rule). Please no more. Let's stick to one a month. If possible. Please...?

Shayzilla 02/19/2009 #

Not a problem! I can leave it at once a month since I myself am going through some other things and I'm afraid of over-committing myself.

Does the story have to be set in the present day or can it be in a different era ?

Shayzilla 02/24/2009 #

It could be set it whatever time you would like. If it is set in a different era make sure all of the supporting descriptions are time accurate.

Thank you to everyone who has joined the swap so far. Swap partners will be assigned ASAP on the 1st.

Sorry partners were assigned so late in the day. It snowed like crazy today here in Georgia and our internet went down the moment I signed in this morning. It was enough time to check an unread message and try to make my way to the swap to assign.
