Did You Correspond Today?

[TSherbs]

How do you guys get "behind"? I have four correspondents (outside of family). We exchange once every 3-5 weeks, on average. Easy pace. How many people do you write to? How often? I counted my letters out over the last two years: 83. Are you guys way over that number? What kind of volume are you talkin'?

I probably write to 25 people regularly, plus another 10 or so semi-regularly. Monthly, I probably send out around 25 letters, if not more. During InCoWriMo in February, I've sent over 40 letters the past two years.

cowabunga!

I know some people who have more than 50 correspondents. I possibly have up to 50, but not all write back as quickly. A relief in a way. I seem to have some correspondents around the 5 questions on my forum, although maybe every other month as I've been a little slow on replies.

I probably write 5 letters a week, so 250+ per year. I don't have any living relatives, so it's all pen pal action. PM me your address and I'd be happy to drop you a line!

Sent a nice long one out today. 😇

[Jon Szanto]

Yes.

Just wondering, does anyone here engage in "ghost correspondence"? I understand this to be a letter exchange between people who have assumed historical identities other than their own.

Mainly for history buffs, there is some research involved so as to assume a realistic tone, as in between a pen pal living in 8th century England writing to someone living in 2nd century China.

Any interest?

Just sent like 5 to 7 out in a bundle. Been rushing out the door lately and forgetting the letters in my room for a while. Finally had an exam, so morning lab was cancelled, giving me an extra hour in the morning to relax and gather myself and remembered all the letters.

[Morgaine]

One in, and I forgot to take one letter with me this morning to post, but I did get it in the box 10 minutes or so before a collection.
