Description:

For this swap we will be sending a note card with information about YOU in it. Im going to make this sort of specific because I know its hard to think of things to write.

So, take a blank notecard or pretty stationary and answer these questions to the best of your ability.

  1. Your full name

  2. Your spouse/significant other and children and anything you would like to say about them.

  3. Your pets, names, types, quirks, (if you have no pets just state that you don't.

  4. Your favorite crafts or arts.

  5. What type of area do you live in? City, Rural, Farm, Small town, etc...

  6. Favorite color and scent.

  7. Favorite flower

  8. What makes you the person you are

  9. Challenges you have overcome

  10. Anything else you want to share. And any swaps you would like to see done.

Ok, 10 questions, not so bad right? If you need more paper please feel free to add sheets to your card. If you feel inspired to add something small that represents you please by all means do so! If you have problems writing, please feel free to use the computer to write it out. We will be sending one card to each person that signs up so we can ALL get to know you. So it may be easier to type it up on the computer and tuck the sheet into the card. I do not want extras to be sent for hearts. I would like you all to consider how open and complete the answers are to the questions and take into account that being that open with a person we know is hard so opening up to a person in a swap is much harder when granting hearts. We are all very special people and deserve to have someone care about us, this swap will hopefully facilitate that.

Open to everybody in the Special ones group! I will not be checking ratings, I can't obviously angel this one because I don't know you yet and I don't care if you have 1's or 3's in your ratings because I believe in YOU. If for some reason you can't sign up for a swap due to ratings but still want to be included, I will get you the addresses of everybody signed up and get yours to them just PM me with your info and what it is for ok? This will be international so to make sure that people can participate, if you can't afford postage please e-mail me your letter and I will mail it for you. I want everybody to be able to join.

So the swap is going to say 1 partner until right before I assign so I know how many to include. Remember though, you will be sending 1 card to each person in the swap.

I love the idea of this swap but will have absolutely no time until late September to swap. Maybe if this takes off you could do another one later? :)

Reesie271 08/ 8/2009 #

We can definitely do another one later! or, if it works better for everybody we can boost this one back to the end of September; Let me know your thoughts on the subject ok?

Swan 08/17/2009 #

I don't mind either way, i.e. whether it ends early or late in September.

Swan 08/20/2009 #

Partners are assigned now and it still says 1 partner. How will that effect the swap? Are we sending to one partner each now? Or will you, Ressie271, collect addresses or something?

dorsetdumpling 08/20/2009 #

Yes, I was wondering that Swan...I have my swap ready to post tomorrow so need some guidance about what to do next.

Reesie271 08/21/2009 #

sorry about that; all fixed!

Reesie271 08/21/2009 #

I had an emergency out of town for the past 2 days, sorry about any confusion

Swan 08/21/2009 #

Unfortunately, when I click on the "See the partners you send to", swap-bot still only shows one partner, even though the number of swap partners is now 8.

Reesie271 08/21/2009 #

I just e-mailed the rest of the addresses to everyone; I am so sorry about the error.

Swan 09/ 5/2009 #

I'm sending out all 8 letters today. All handwritten to make them a little more special :)

Simone 09/ 8/2009 #

Oh dear - I have only posted one letter off - I will post the rest on Friday - I saw the message with the other addresses but it did not make sense to me - Now when I got a third letter - arghhhhh - I realised my error.

Simone 09/15/2009 #

I have received a few letters but I guess we only have one person to rate.

I will send private responses to the others.

Thank you for sharing your lives with us.

I'm sorry I'm so late, I've had back problems and haven't been on here. I'll get mine sent out asap.

Psychopixie 09/26/2009 #

I still only have one partner too
