Done!

Ah, I can take my shoes off and relax.......all 56 emails have been sent out.
Penpals matched, armed and ready! Let the writing begin:)
That was a lot of work but I hope that everyone involved gets enjoyment out of it:) I did.

If there are any glitches, please contact me. I will try to help out as best I can. I am hoping everyone will write a letter but life sometimes gets in the way and things happen....so please be understanding if that occurs.

  6. Argh! I, too, only just today discovered this jewel of pen-to-paper letter writing and connecting. Perhaps you will host a second "round" for us soon...

  9. Just found out about this via Gifted Typist's blog. Wonderful idea! I love seeing handwritten mail in the mailbox. I might just be motivated to look for other penpal services...

  11. Thanks for all the work on this project. I wrote my pen-pal and have heard back! Yipee!

    My question: Did someone else get my name to write to me first, or were we given to one other person as a 'pair'? I don't know if I should be getting a latter from someone else too, or if I'm all set.

    This is awesome regardless!!
