2017 PenPal Sign-Ups ~ Ends 12/19/16



Would you like a pen-pal for 2017?
 
Are you willing to write and send a letter once or twice a month?
 
Would you like to make a new friend, maybe even for life?
 
Would you like to get something other than bills in the mail?
 
If so, I hope you'll join in!
 
To join, please email me the following information to collettaskitchensink@yahoo.com .  I promise, the only person I'll share your information with will be your new pen-pal.
 
~Name
~Blog address (You don't have to have a blog)
~Mailing address
~Age
~Hobbies
~Would you like an international pen-pal?
 
 
Sign-ups will end on December 19th so that I can match you up and get your pen-pal's information to you before the New Year starts.
 
Please only sign-up if you are willing to participate.  I would hate for someone to be paired with a pen-pal who isn't going to keep up their end of the deal.
 
I can't wait to get started!

Edited to add:

So far we have 65 participants from the US, Canada, England, Scotland, Australia, New Zealand and soon-to-be Thailand!!

  2. I had several pen pals when I was growing up. I do love to get snail mail. Real writing is a lost art.

  4. Sounds exciting, I haven't written to a penpal since I was a teen and into my 20s. As someone said above, letter writing is such a lost art.

  14. Can't get the email to work. I would like a penpal. My blog is: www.macqueblogspot.blogspot.com I live near the coast in Georgia in the USA.. I like to travel, read and craft. A penpal anywhere in the world would be fine.

  16. This is a really lovely idea, I would like to join in, but because my life is so up and down right now I would hate to have to drop out and disappoint someone so I am not signing up. I wish everyone well though and perhaps if you have more sign ups in the future I can take part then. Happy writing everyone!!
