Home shows this week’s letter prompt. Print a letter sheet from Home or My penpals — city and country only, no street. After a swap is accepted, print the first envelope kit for packing plus that prompt on one page. Swap cards also say Do this next (pack, wait, or thank). Swap requests and swap threads have chips you can tap to drop the prompt into your note. Introductions has starter chips (short hello, first swap, what I send, this week’s prompt) that fill the thread form from your profile. They’re conversation starters for real paper. Digital swap messages stay instant so you can plan postage; we don’t delay chat to fake snail mail.
Money asks (gift cards, crypto, wires) are blocked on swap notes. Wait to share street or phone until they accept — address unlocks then.
