Month of Letters Challenge






On a recent post at Letter Writer's Alliance there is a wonderful activity happening for the month of February: "A Month of Letters 2013". 
 
You can do this!  Do not be overwhelmed.  You are probably sending the equivellant of something daily already.
 
There is still time to get and/or organize your correspondence supplies.  
 
Have you signed up yet? What are you waiting for?

~ End-of-Week Mail Bag ~

You know you are unusually tardy when Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas mail is represented in one posting.  *Sigh*
 
Recently, Pen Friends hosted and attended a Letter Writing Social.  http://thesnailmailer.blogspot.com/2012/11/long-but-good-day.html   It was great to hear about the event and its success.  What fun it must have been to try the supplies and punches that were provided; as well as write a letter or two!  Hands-on activities does spark creativity.  In addition, I can only imagine the excitement of meeting those you have been writing to.  It is so fun to put a face/voice with the person you have exclusively known thru the mail.  I am sure this successful social sparked the interest in some to start writing letters - if not for the first time, then to start writing again.

~End-of-Week Mail Bag ~

I'm absolutely loving all of the Halloween inspired mail!  What did you do on the 31st to mark this occasion?
 
Mail in from: Germany; India; The Netherlands;  US - California; Colorado; Georgia; Louisiana; North Carolina; Pennsylvania; Washington; West Virginia.  Where are you writing to and receiving from lately?
 
Working On: "Project Correspondence Catch-up!"  I have gotten shamefully behind with replies.  It is time to get pen to paper and have the outbound mail happening again.  What are you working on?

~ End-of-Week Mail Bag ~

Can you believe it is almost the end of October - Already??  Argh!  

Mid-week has very quickly turned into End-of-week in a blink of an eye.  You know how that goes.

The mailbox continues to be busy with an abundance of wonderful, colorful, beautiful cards/letters/inserts and gifties!! Isn't it fun to see the Autumn and Halloween inspired mail too? I can't help but smile with each and every envelope arrival.

The snailmailer and i are are fans of Project Runway.   We have been recapping/commenting, etc on each weekly episode.  The finale has concluded.  As you can see from above - her colorful and creative mail was more than we can say for the designer's creations this time around.  Ba-bye Season 10!  Hello All-Stars!  We are chomping at the bit in anticipation of season 2 and its colorful designers.  We are very hopeful for an exciting, colorful and print-filled season.  Come on designers - Make It Work!
