☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ Week 2 ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
These prompts are taken from the public daily swaps I am hosting. (Check them out if you need more letter writing excuses!) Choose one and write to your partner.
- April 7 is No Housework Day. I have no problem not doing housework today. Or any day. LOL. But sooner or later, something has to be done. How do you motivate yourself to a task you don't relish? Do you accomplish it ASAP or put it off? Bribe yourself, or adult through? What is that (or one of them) task?
- April 8 is "All is Ours" Day. Write about a responsibility or resource you share with others and how that sharing improves or enriches your life experience.
- April 9 is Unicorn Day. Let’s take a dive into the mystical, magical, whimsical, or silly. Consider: What do you imagine of unicorns? If you came face to face with a unicorn, what would be the circumstances? In a forest, in a castle, in a meadow, in a dream, in a parking lot? Would you speak? Literally, or spiritually, or telepathically would there be a communication? Would you expect something of it or expect to give to it? Would it in fact, fart rainbows?
- April 10 is Siblings Day. Write about your sibling(s), or lack thereof, sister-from-another-mister, a brother-from-another-mother, siblings-in-law...
- April 11 Is National Clean Up Your Pantry Day. Consider for sharing: Are you an organized cupboard manager, with established inventories that never get out of control? (Reveal your secrets oh, wise ones!) Do you stock-pile your pantry with "great bargains" that you forget about? Are your cupboards bare? What's the oldest thing in your pantry? Is there something you are never without in your pantry? Is your pantry too big, too small? Etc.
- April 12 is Walk on Your Wild Side Day. Consider: What does your wild side look like? Is your wild side a dream or reality? Any adrenaline junkies out there, or maybe just answering the phone is a walk on the wild side? Is "wild" trying a new food, or hiking a new trail, or learning a new skill? How far out of your comfort zone is “wild”? Has your perspective of “wild” changed? Over what time frame? What would you tell your younger self? What risk do you regret not taking, or conversely, what risk would you caution against? Do you have a bucket list? Do you have upcoming plans to check any of those boxes?
- April 13 is Plant Appreciation Day. Whether you are a houseplant guru or a gardening green thumb or can’t get enough of May flowers or August tomatoes or just like to sit in the shade beneath a tree… what do you appreciate about any one or multiple or multitudes or fields and plains of [plant(s)]. Consider the perspective of a pollinator or herbivore?
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ SERIES DETAILS:
April Is National Letter Writing Month ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆☆
Because Letter Writing = Snail-Mail = Happiness! It’s fun to have a challenge and a reason to write, isn’t it? Even if the Write-On campaign/challenge seems to have fizzled, I still write a letter every day in April.
Easy peasy:
Send a letter to your partner following one of the prompts for the week. It should be chatty enough to give a feel for the prompt, but not so lengthy that you feel a slave to it.
Put something on the envelope to distinguish it from a bill--a sticker or a doodle, and include your user name and the swap name. Tuck in a little letter writing themed somethin’, somethin’.
Give the best of your time to the content of the letter itself.
All Group Rules Apply. Send on time, communicate, rate promptly. Sign onto swap-bot at least two days before the sign up deadline so I know you’re serious about your participation.
