Description:

I like my postcards written on.. I feel as if I buy one and it is in my collection unwritten on that I have to send it away.. and I don't always want that to happen.. (I bought it for myself.. I want to keep it!) Anyway, I don't want to write to myself and I am sure there are some people out there just like me.. so for this swap you will have (2) partners that you will send (1) of your unwritten, want a message on postcards to (address it to yourself).. in an envelope with a little letter or note introducing yourself to them.. Your partners will then turn around, and send your postcard, stamped and written on back to you with a little about them. That way you get your cake and eat it too! You get a stamp from where they live and it written on.. plus the possibility of a new friend/penpal!
I am opening this up to newbies because we all have to start somewhere.. Please do not sign up if you don't plan on sending the postcard back to the person

I am pleased at the excitement that everyone seems to have.. I just hope everyone keeps their commitment! Please don't forget to rate your partner as well. On a positive note your reply does not have to be too long because it is only the size of a postcard.. if you decide to continue.. then you can write a longer letter in the future!

Very green newbie here. Had to get my profile set up & not sure if I made the cut for your list. If so, when can I expect my receiver address? Thankx!!!
