    I'm in again. I still owe letters to a few people (hi Randall!) from last spring, when life absolutely took a turn for weirdness... but I'm getting there!

    I will definitely write some new folks, and will respond (hopefully faster this year) to any letters I receive.

    I'm in, and have a bunch of postcards. I'll probably start by sending a few out to those who list their address.

    Please PM if you want me to send one to you and/or if you would like my address.

    Everyone counts! I write to a lot of non-pen-people -- or puggles (pen muggles) during InCorWriMo --- both friends and family members get their once-a-year letter.

    I don't think there is any doubt people like us will have an issue sending 28 pieces of mail. It's replaying quickly that may trip me up :-)

    My hesitation was with regard to how many more pen pals I can take on, but I decided the more the merrier

    Default InCoWriMo 2015 anyone?

    Until postage becomes an issue there are no such thing as too many. I may even send the Pope and Dali Lama a card this year knowing there would be no chance of a reply

    Handwriting is good therapy for me Sooo..... I may be a special case

    I wasn't sure if I'd be able to do this with my other commitments but what the hell, I've made a few friends through pen palling this past year so a few more can't hurt! I'm 43, male, full time carer for my disabled mum, not the most interesting person in the world but I'm reliable so I will reply.

Postcard collector, birdwatcher, book lover, history and trivia buff. Of course fountain pens especially Esterbrooks and Waterman. We have a Basset Hound, that loves to hike.

    Writing over the last year has been very enjoyable and it will be good fun to take part again. I am a middle-aged English teacher: usually I save the rest for the correspondence!
    If you wrote last year and did not get a reply, which I discovered an instance of, that means your letter or mine got lost, as you can count on replies.
