I received a new letter yesterday, but not through either inco site!
Received a letter from VertOlive! Finished yesterday's letter at work and have one to reply to tonight so I'm still on track.
(3 in of which 1 random, 6 out at the moment).
VertOlive (February 7th, 2019)
Sending out one today. At least one person here will not go letter-less.
Will try to send to someone else soonish.
I received 2 missives from people here on the 7th!!
I wrote one in Uncial for the 8th, maybe misguidedly
Now at 12 out, zero new writers in.

8/8 for LetterMo and 5/28 for InCo. One in the reply queue which I intend to clear soon.
Only one postcard for my postal project this month, but I imagine that I will be slammed in the second half of the month.
Did one today, on a rainbow tear-off pad I got from WH Smith, also today (brand was Sola, in clearance). It worked well enough with a Sailor MF nib, not sure if it would behave with anything much wetter.
(3 in, 9 out)
One still in the process of being penned. Zero new writers in. Trying to be brave and not sulk and pout.

For next week, I've been tinting some white paper with R&K Sketch Ink (so it remains unmoved when you write on top of it) and refilling some pens. There were a few times this week I was grabbing whatever was available to chuck in my bag. I need to remember to have choices in my fine pens for the airmail letters.
Mailed two, one that I finished this morning. I'm hoping to write two more letters this evening and get back up to speed. So far I've had one incowrimo letter in this month.

Did an international one today, with some decorated paper. (Works to write over, at least!)

Today's was on some of the Rhodia I put washes of R&K Sketch Ink Lilly on - worked pretty well! I could still mostly see my guide sheet under the paper, and it wrote fine on top.

THREE in!!! Finishing at least one for posting tomorrow.

I got a response to one of my random ones today! And wrote to me mum. (I was running out of things to say to people I don't know at all).

Received a Red "Year of the Pig Prosperity Packet" from a new correspondent today. One of my most exotic tuck-ins ever.

Alligator is quite something...
I did my letter yesterday and have just made a start on today's.
