Wow! Has it been a year already?!! I'm sure I owe some folks letters from last year but, I'm in again for this year!

Is there a spreadsheet this year again? I didn't see one linked.
Spreadsheet not needed with the address book on Bruce's site
I added my name!
The way I got there:
Go to link in post #1. Scroll down and click on photo of letters. Click on "address book" then click on "join in." A form will pop up and you can fill in your info!
The spreadsheet last year had the advantage of listing people's interests. I enjoy the frisson of finding someone sharing a niche or unusual interest more than generating general, scattershot questions for most of an opening letter.
A nifty addition to InCoWriMo 2017 is its unique planning calendar for months January and February 2017, listing some feast days and holidays I never knew about!

Removing myself from the 2017 list. Address changes afoot in February and will be living in a caravan until summer. I'll only be communicating with current pen pals.
I cannot figure out how to take myself off the actual InCo site....

I will be trying this year after a couple of years of not trying. I don't post my address, so if anyone wants it, please just pm me.
I am planning to start with letters to relatives and friends and if I stretch those terms far enough they may get me all the way through the month...
*heads out to Harbor Freight for a term-stretcher...*

Looks like it is now sorted, VO!

Hi all-
I'm participating again this year, but focusing on responding to letters from years past. Sorry I wasn't able to get a spreadsheet going like I did last year... looks like there might be a better alternative now, though! If you are looking for folks to write to, my inbox is always open - it just may take me a while to respond.
If I owe you a letter, please drop me a PM so I make sure it didn't get lost somewhere. I think I've kept things pretty well together, but 2016 was an emotionally difficult year of family loss. Things have been a bit scattered.
I am a penpaller and love happy mail. Please PM me for my address, or add yours to my postable: https://www.postable.com/melissakrueger
You probably owe me a letter, but no rush. Hugs!
February is here! YAY!
Wow, over 300 have signed up on Bruce's site!
I've written my first letter today, but I haven't posted it yet. On the other hand it won't take long to get to Wales.
Wrote and posted 2 today. Mine will take longer to get to Wales😉

Just to clarify...charities are interested in stamps that have been franked? I just assumed the interest was in clean stamps.
Thanks!
