Description:

Okay, I am hooked on fiction writing with a twist. This will be a short story and not a letter. Every month we will have a different scenario that we will write about. I hope to see most of the people writing signing up each month.

This month will be a short story about coming to America during the Colonizations of the coastal lands. Where you will be and who you will be is up to you. Why did you come over? Where did you come from and why did you leave? Tell us what the first year in the new world is like and how you adapted to your new life.

Let's have fun with this swap. You will need to send 2 complete type written pages of computer paper. Send more if it will add to your story. I am keeping a journal of all the short stories and letters that I am writing and keeping the ones that I receive. Next month we will have a new scenario. Since this is just writing I am making this international.

Please Note: If you write fewer than 2 pages you can and should be rated a 3 for not following swap guidelines. You may not rate down if you do not agree with the content and how it is written.

~~~~~~My swap rules~~~~~~

No 1's or 3's in the past 6 months

Well filled out profiles. This means that you must have likes, dislikes and a wish list on your profile . Newbies that haven't been rated yet are welcomed

I do check profiles and if you sound iffy I will ban

Rate the swaps as by the rules by swapbot and not your personal likes or dislikes of the person or the swap. If it meets swap guidelines then rate a 5. If it was extra special you may want to give a heart. If it is late then a 3 whether you were notified or not. It is up to your discretion. 1's are for the flakers.

If you flake on any of my swaps you will not be allowed in anymore that I am hosting.

If you do not meet my swap rules and requirements I will ban you. I will not send a PM as we are all adults and can read these swap requirements.

I angel all my swaps. If you do not receive please contact me so that I can send you your swap.

If you have any problems or questions please PM me.

~~~~~~I can not control who smokes or has pets. If you have a problem with that then please do not join my swaps.~~~~~~

Since I live a very short distance from where the Mayflower arrived, I can certaiinly write authoritatively about the setting. I might even go to the local history section of the library and do a little research.
