I am still definitely behind, but if I put them in the postbox on Monday it will still count, right? :D

I'll come up with something eventually.

You betcha it counts. Good luck with that catch-up process!

I accomplished my goal of a piece of mail a day for each InCoWriMo and LetterMo!

I can hardly believe how much fun I have had doing this!

Here is my InCo set-up for this year:

 

24749092084_91fa25ef7b_z.jpg

 

 

It's a travel case that I often use for sock-knitting (I own more than one of these handy little things). Lots of room, lots of pockets. Stationery is in front; stamps in a pocket, and Washi tape inside. The unanswered letters were separated from the answered ones by a small Black 'n' Red notebook. I could even have slid in a pen or two.

 

In previous years, everything was in one folder, but I like this so much I may keep it as a way to sort and track correspondence!

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

Wow! Impressive! I wasn't trying to do enough to capture each of this; didn't even think about it. I did manage 33 individual items mailed, though.

 

I feel GOOODDDDDD!!!!!!

Congratulations! I sent out 22 letters this month, but I had a great time and want to continue penpalling other people. I cannot be brief even when cold-writing to strangers, so I had to set aside a good amount of time for letter-writing. I will do this next year, I think.

I'll come up with something eventually.

I got a reply from the Pony Express Museum, which was one of my thank you note recipients.

 

Did you all know in the U.S. April is National Card and Letter Writing Month?

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
