Misfit Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 Hurray! I have participated in InCoWriMo successfully two years running. Last letter of the month a reply to a letter that arrived today. I hope all who participated feel good at the end. Link to post Share on other sites
Quentin Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I wrote a few extra cards to my pen pals. They probably were pleasantly surprised cuz I've never done that before. Not a big commitment, so I could just do it when I had time. Link to post Share on other sites
sharonspens Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Been an unusually busy month for me, and trying to get these last letters done was impossible. I did get postcards out to everyone ho has sent me a letter in the last half of the month, so I got 31 mailings done by deadline.

Rhincodon Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I got out 31 letters somehow, but my to-reply pile is probably in the double digits so March is going to be busy. It was fun as always. So many beautiful examples of mail art! I'll come up with something eventually. Link to post Share on other sites
Misfit Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 I got 29 out. Today I got 5 letters! Two are from my brother, happily. Link to post Share on other sites
clazbill Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 First year I've attempted it. I wrote 18 letters. While that is short of the goal, that's far more letters than I've written in a month before now. Next time I'll have a better handle on what it takes to get a letter out every day. And now onto March, the month of replys. Link to post Share on other sites
asnailmailer Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 March on, and in April, there's #write_on! I failed to write on some days in February due to illness. But, I did write more than 30 letters in February. Got quite the pile of letters to reply to. 18 letters is a great effort. Writing letters should be enjoyable and not feel like a chore. !

Misfit Posted March 23, 2020 Author Share Posted March 23, 2020 April is National Card and Letter Writing Month. It seems like InCoWriMo overshadows that by a long shot. I tried to write a letter a day in April of last year, but didn’t get beyond two weeks. I think February is an easier month not simply because it is shorter, but dark evenings seem to promote letter writing more. Just a theory of mine. Link to post Share on other sites
Quentin Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 (edited) April is National Card and Letter Writing Month. It seems like InCoWriMo overshadows that by a long shot. I tried to write a letter a day in April of last year, but didnt get beyond two weeks. I think February is an easier month not simply because it is shorter, but dark evenings seem to promote letter writing more. Just a theory of mine.I'm writing a letter a day now and have expanded my list. Family never writes back (they call or text), but they're all getting letters from me now anyway.

Misfit Posted March 23, 2020 Author Share Posted March 23, 2020 I hope this time round at least one writes back. Maybe enclose a stamp? Link to post Share on other sites
flyingfox Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Wow, I didn't know about Card and Letter Writing Month! Sounds great! I sure hope that the world will go back to normal before April is up, because postal service isn’t working in some countries.... I will be writing to random nursing homes within the U.S. that I found on SNS, but it’s not the same as writing to my pen pals... Link to post Share on other sites
