Description:

Choose your favorite letter from a novel. For example: Darcy's letter to Elizabeth from "Pride and Prejudice" or Jose's letter to Holly Golightly from "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Make the letter look as authentic as possible, as if it really came from the person in the novel. Use your creativity to make the character come to life. Make the envelope part of the novel too - address it to the receiving character, create a stamp if appropriate, then put the envelope in a 'real world' envelope to send to your partner. Examples: Darcy's letter would be folded and sealed with wax. Jose's letter may be written by typewriter on New York hotel stationary. You will have only one partner for this, so try and make the letter really unique. On a separate page please write what novel the letter is from, the characters involved, as well as why you chose this letter. For hearts, you could add any other trinket, relevant to the characters (no locks of hair, though. It may be true to the spirit of the novel, but it is also rather gross).

No unexplained 1's or 3's. Newbies with at least one successful swap are welcome with profiles filled in detail to my satisfaction. Shady characters will be banned.
