When first writing to your new female penpal try these topics to break the proverbial ice within your letters or your emails to one another, ask them about tradition their families have, pets that they may have, anything special they love to collect, What is their favorite, music, book, movie, TV show, celebrity, etc. and what was their best vacation recently. All of these things and more will help you to get to know your female penpal more and have lots more to chat about in other letters or emails.
Some tips to remember when writing your female penpal by email are that what you write is not as important as were the writing comes from, dig deep within the heart and write what feels natural and comfortable. Add a bit of creative flair into it as well to keep it interesting. Always put the letters/emails subject into the line of subject, this lets the recipient know what the email is about. Be sure to look over your address of return email and make sure it is the correct one. Use a signature for signing off at the bottom of your email; this should include your name, email address and perhaps a quote that is your favorite. Tell them exactly the reason you are writing to them especially if this is the first correspondence between you and your female penpal. Any questions that they ask about you should be responded to promptly and honestly and then you should include your own series of questions. This helps you two become more acquainted with one another and helps you have something to chat about all of the time on different topics.
