How to Write Your First Letter to a Pen Pal
So you've decided to commit to a relationship with a pen pal, but
now that it is time to write the letter, you have ni ideas. To start,
remind yourself that all you are doing is introducing yourself to
your pen pal.
Think about how you can introduce yourself to someone you met
on a road trip or on a vacation. Writing an introductory letter to a
pen pal isn't much different than that.
Make your first letter shine. This is your chance to make a new
friend who could become an important part of your life.
