Thread: Letter time

    I lurves getting letters!
    And they're fun to send too!

    I have two distinctly different sets of handwriting. It starts bold and rounded and as I write it gradually becomes extremely thin and tall.

    I send letters to my relatives every 2-4 months. I don't personally receive any back though.

    I think my handwriting is decent enough, though some people have told me that my writing looks really nice. I write letters using my basic everyday handwriting not using anything special.

    I can't even remember the last personal letter I sent.

    I also have terrible handwriting, though it's somewhat legible to others if I actually slow down. The only thing I write down anymore is notes, so it's generally only for me anyway.

    I LOVE sending/recieving letters! They're just so much more personal than email and somehow just more...fun

    I love getting letters but I'm not so awesome at sending them.
    My handwriting is well enough.

    Do you like sending and receiving letters?
    Depends on the contents of the letter.

    Do you do it often?
    I hardly think thats any of your business

    Do you find nice penmanship alluring, like I do? Do YOU have nice penmanship?
    When I am bored in class scrutinise every detail in the handwriting of the person sitting next to me. I personally write block print when im trying to be neat (its a mix between cursive and block when im rushing)

    Do you have special stationary for sending letters?
    No just a simple quill and any vial of blood will do.

    Have a nice day!!

    I love sending and receiving letters but as with most people these days it doesn't happen all that often. And yes, nice penmanship can be a gorgeous thing. My own is pretty bleh.

    I have a folio of four classical Alice in Wonderland correspondence cards with matching envelopes that I have yet to use.

    Like so many others I love sending/receiving letters and packages. Because of e-mails and the interwebz it doesn't happen that often anymore.

    I'm told I have very girly (ie neat) handwriting, which is a total lie since nobody who is female has legible handwriting

    I have some Winnie the Pooh note paper from this one time I wrote a thank-you note. But I don't have sparkle pen any more and I don't think I'll do another thank-you note in a long time, and even if I do it probably won't be in the style of Winnie the Pooh

    My friend and I send each other letters to each other every other month. Its really special and meaningful and even though my handwriting is rather horrible (I tend to rush midway) it sends a clear message we spent time and effort to write down instead of type down all our thoughts, desires and dreams. Enclosed are assorted gifts that we send each other..Its not of the expensive variety, rather its trinkets, sketched images we've drawn ,burnt music on his part, or my woven samples. Basically any other personal effects that we know we'll cherish forever.


    This was also one the first time I professed my love (non sexual) for him and he vice-versa. Call it 'bromance' or whatever but those letter sending really did bonded/solidified our brotherhood to each other. Distance between us doesn't matter with letters. Its way to show insight into our souls..Emails are one thing but hand written letters are special in this day and age.

    I paid a visit to the mailbox tonight; Yaridovich can expect a letter in a few days!

    Do you like sending and receiving letters?

    I do, though I only have one friend who I exchange letters with as we struggle to keep in touch online these days and letters are more fun than emails. I do, however, send and receive a lot of postcards all across the world.

    Do you do it often?

    Letters, probably one every month or two. Postcards, probably an average of about 12 a month.

    Do you find nice penmanship alluring, like I do? Do YOU have nice penmanship?

    Some, yes. Some of the fancier ones I'll admire and perhaps like for a short passage, but too much and it becomes a bit irritating. As for my own handwriting, it can be pretty messy but it's usually legible.

    Do you have special stationary for sending letters?

    Not particularly, though I do tend to write with a nicer pen rather than a biro when I'm sending letters. Usually my fountain pen.
    Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.
