Drawing and Month of Letters

Jan 29, 2015 12:38

Next Month (next week actually) starts Month of Letters http://lettermo.com/. I will send out (at least) one letter for every day the post office is open (23 postal days), and I will send a reply to any personal mail I receive in the month of February.

This will be my fourth year participating. When I started the first year I was unemployed and nearly broke, but I had recently printed up some of my drawings as postcards. I figured I could afford the cost of some cardstock and stamps, and it would help fill my time.

It has also inspired me to continue drawing, each February I would try to have a half dozen new cards to send out to people. Some of them didn't get finished till mid February, but it was a creative outlet with a "soft" deadline.

This year I am more prepared than ever before. I am employed and can even afford international postage. Also since I moved to Virginia kyttn has been bringing me to "Stitch & Bitch" dinners with her friends. While the others get out their crochet, knitting, or cross-stitch; I get out my sketchpad. I have 3 new cards I made last fall, and another 5 drawings I like well enough to make into cards.

So if any of you are interested in getting a card from me you can comment below to give me your address (Comments screened for privacy)
