Correspondence - Find a Pen Pal

[sweetfrancaise]

Oh, I'd love to as well. Sounds fun!

 

[Real Swell Gal]

I wouldn't mind actually writting a real snail mail letter.
If anyone wouldn't mind reading a real snail mail letter from a real swell gal.

 

[Miss Neecerie]

We can put me down too...as I scared away all the last batch of correspondents!

 

[Joie DeVive]

Count me in!

 

[TheKitschGoth]

Room for another?

 

[dollydaydream]

And me and me!!! I love writing letters, and of course, getting a letter that isn't a bill or some other rubbish

 

[dollydaydream]

This was on a different correspondance thread, I thought y'all might like to see it.

Emily Post 1922: Letter Writing Etiquette

If noone minds getting all the wrong kind of letters you'll be ok with me lol

 

[Fleur De Guerre]

I am such a bad correspondent.

Yeah, Scott! lol

Just kidding, I think I probably owed you a reply anyway...can't remember! I am terrible.

 

[Staredge]

I'd love to be in as well. I'm going to have to dig out my stationery box. I'd especially like to correspond with people from outside the US.



Have any of you read the Griffin & Sabine series??

I've read the first 3 or 4. (a long time ago) The books are basically, the letters between the two title characters. Funky, bizarre, mysterious....a great deal of fun.

 

[scotrace]

Yeah, Scott! lol

Just kidding, I think I probably owed you a reply anyway...can't remember! I am terrible.

Watch your mail! lol

 

[The Dame]

Is that a chorus of angels singing 'hallelujah' I'm hearing?!? There really are people who still like to write letters by hand, on good stationery, with a fountain pen? Catch me, I'm swoonin'.

I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, Toto - and I like it!!!

 

[AmateisGal]

This gives me the perfect excuse to go buy some new stationary! I love shopping for that stuff. And a new pen to go with it!

 

[dollydaydream]

I love stationary shopping too!! The best part of my course was the shopping for paper, pens, folders & other irrelevant bits of stuff I didn't need. It was all downhill from then on :eusa_doh:

Oooo I'm so excited!! I do enjoy letters!!!!!

 

[zaika]

Yeah, I'm looking forward to stationary shopping, too! I haven't in such a long time... Oh...and a fountain pen! I'll just *have* to get one...darn.
I might even splurge on monogrammed paper and envelopes.

 

[Real Swell Gal]

Is someone going to match people up? I don't know how this works.
And please forgive my lack of fountain pen, I prefer a Cross pen. Nice and heavy.

 

[dollydaydream]

Whichever poor soul gets stuck with me shall have letters written in biron on Emily Strange paper & like it lol

 

[Lola Valentine]

I never noticed this thread before, am I too late to join in?

[Tango Yankee]

Well, I'm game!

I've tried to resurrect the idea of letter writing with some friends and family, but they're all too far gone into the e-mail thing to go back to pen and paper. It'd be a nice change to get an actual letter in the mail!

Regards,
Tom

Hand written letters? Those things still exist?
