04 Sep 2007 The Modern Letter Project

One of the things I’d really like to get back to doing on a more consistent basis is letter-writing. (Kim: I owe you a letter!) Who am I kidding, I can’t even keep up with email. Anyway, I’m working on it.

Before I bought my first computer in 2000, I would write a lot more and, with all that practice, my handwriting was somewhat neater. These days, my fancy pens gather dust and the most I might write is a cheque once in a while. I do an atrocious amount of crossing out and re-writing, too, which is why I carry around one of those correctable tape pens! < --- nerd alert!

Anyway, what am I doing typing this up when I could be writing a letter, you might ask. I wanted to plug The Modern Letter Project, a project initiated by a Brooklyn writer of a blog I read from time to time.

Putting the snail back in mail: An international pen pal project for the modern world.

I think it’s a great idea, and if you are also a fan of “real mail”, you might want to check it out.
