Letter Writing Month 2020: Wrap-Up.

Another year, another letter writing month! I did pretty good for February 2020. There were only a couple of days during the end of the month where I didn’t send something. So, I sent something on all but a couple of the days that mail was running in the U.S. But I didn’t necessarily write...

Letter Writing Month Returns!

Hello friends! February is Letter Writing Month. What’s that? It’s simple. Here are the “official rules” from the website: In the month of February, mail at least one item through the post every day it runs (which in the US is every day except Sundays and Washington’s Birthday on Monday February 17th- my notes.) Write a postcard, a...

Letter Writing Month 2014!

You may remember that in 2012 and 2013 I participated in something called Letter Writing Month. The premise is simple: for every day the post runs in February (which is 23 days in the US in February: 28 minus 4 Sundays minus one holiday) a participant is supposed to write someone. I'm not always the...

Announcing: Postcard Club 2014

Letter Writing Month is BACK!

From flickr user (cobrabyte)Remember last year's Letter Writing Month? February has been declared a month of old-school penmanship and correspondence by the Month Of Letters website.
