Start the month with a quick note and a tuck in.

A couple of lines in a note card. A dad-joke, a quote. Tuck in something to advance your partner's correspondence--a note card, a couple of sheets of letter paper, a post card, return address labels, a decorated envie...

Decorate the envie. A sticker or two is fine, but give the postal carrier/sorter something to look at.

Reminder that all the rules you signed up for when you joined swap-bot, and those listed when you sign up for each swap apply. It should not be necessary for every host to relist them on every swap.

That said, YOU must message ME if you have any recent ones or threes, there's been any drama involving you in the PFs, anything in the swap description is unclear, if you have outstanding late swaps, or will not sign swap-bot in the two days prior to assignment.
