InCoWriMo Pen Pal Match-Up
Happy New Year! It's already January 2017 - hard to believe, but we're embracing it here. And, before we've even got our teeth into January, we're looking ahead to February!Â
On Mailing Christmas Cards
The last few evenings I've been staying up late trying to finish up our Christmas cards, and I'm mostly through the list. I always enjoyed the process of picking out Christmas cards for family and friends.Â
Letters to Santa Claus through Canada Post
Our Letter Writing Club is happening again this Thursday (December 8) - the last one of 2016! crazy! - and I thought this was the perfect time to remind everyone of Canada Post's Letter Writing to Santa initiative.
Letter Writing Inspiration for Tonight's Letter Writing Club at the Shop
Our Letter Writing Club is tonight! I usually try to do a reminder post a few days earlier so people have time to think about whether or not they can make it, but of course I forgot - I do hope a few of you can still make it! Last month was one of my favourite Letter Writing Club meets to date: we had a bunch of great people, but also a few familiar faces that I hadn't seen in a while, including one who had just returned from spending a few months sailing around on a boat.Â
Letter Writing Club on Thursday + Postman Bear
A reminder that our monthly Letter Writing Club meets this Thursday, October 13th, from 7-9 pm. We meet to write letters and to chat about correspondence and inks and life, and we usually have treats and coffee as well.
Caleb Adventures at the Post Office
I can't believe it's already Friday! I hope you've all had a great week, and a weekend full of exciting plans ahead. Yesterday was our monthly Letter Writing Club, and I sort of dropped the ball, since I usually try to post about it on the blog to remind everyone.
Letter Writing Club Tonight
So we're back into the swing of things, and I almost forgot that our Letter Writing Club is this evening! It was so nice to come back from our trip to find a nice little pile of mail waiting for me mixed in with the bills and invoices and promotions.Â
Impending Canada Post Workers Strike
Canada Post workers are set to potentially go on strike early July *- I think I've heard July 2nd, but what do I know. This is bad news for me because I've recently ordered a watering can in the shape of an elephant (the water comes out of its trunk!) for Caleb.
Snail Mail Inspiration: Bookmark Enclosures + Letter Writing Club on Thursday
Our monthly Letter Writing Club is coming up! It's this Thursday evening. It sort of snuck up on me, but in a nice way, like a forgotten coffee date with a friend. Our last Thursday evening meet in May was a bit smaller, but I think I liked it a bit more intimate - there was more time to chat and take it easy.
Tips on Writing Postcards (Especially with Fountain Pens)
Being a snail mail lover, of course whenever we go anywhere, I like to send postcards.Â
