Postcard Exchange / Pen Pals

This is something I used to do regularly.  Ah, to sit down at my desk in the waning afternoon light, sip some tea, nibble on a pen/pencil and just put some thoughts to paper.  Then send if off to a friend hoping it brightens their day or just make them feel a bit more connected in today's cynical world.  It's an almost lost art, in my humble opinion, in this day and age of social media gone awry.  Just write, I say.  It's good for your mind and soul!

So, help me meet reconnect with all of y'all via this medium.  I have a huge stack of postcards from my travels and a big ol' roll of stamps at the ready!

How To Swap  You can either a) send me a postcard and I'll send you one when I get yours OR you can email me your address (mine's provided at the bottom of this post) and I'll go ahead and send you a card.  Easy peasy.

Theme  Share something about yourself.  Where you are from originally.  Your favorite food to eat or make.  Where you volunteer.  Your most difficult goal for the year.  Anything you feel comfortable with.  Be as creative as you like or keep it simple and sweet.  Make or buy the postcard.  That part doesn't matter as long as you put some thought into it or make it personal and reflective of you.  This is all about getting to know each other in varying ways and supporting each others endeavors, maybe?  Or if you need a theme for named for you in order to encourage the start of the whole process might I suggest discussing the recent marches and maybe share what you feel is important to you?  Not political?  How about the best book you've read in the last few months or some art you feel connected with?

How Often  As much as you'd like.  Once.  Twice.  Three times (a lady).  A hundred.  I'll answer every email and/or every card sent.  If you need me I'm here.

Where  All correspondence can be addressed to: Jennifer Keene 145 Mulberry St Athens, GA 30601.  Email is gritsandmoxie@gmail.com.  No spam or the like, ok?  Thanks.

Questions  Email me.  The address is right there ^ .

I can't wait to start writing to you all!  The postcards are waiting...
