Part of the fun of the Write_On Campaign for National Letter Writing Month in April, is getting letters and goodies back. I have such creative friends and family. Getting something back in the mail has been a treat. Some friends have chosen to respond via email and/or Facebook. I received a beautiful thank you card from Mike and John, and a postcard from Amanda Brown.
My sister Kat with her usual creativity enclosed stamps, notes, confetti, stickers, and had a very special Maya Angelou stamp on the card. My high school/college friend, Pattie Redenbaugh Tierney had made beautiful hand-stamped envelopes with famous chef stamps, and a very appropos card for me inside. It was fun.
My most meaningful Write_On response came to me in yesterday's mail. It made me smile and cry all at the same time. More on that Write_On response tomorrow.
Thanks to everyone who has participated-my last batch of 20 went out in Monday's mail. I think I'm finished for now, but you never know. Don't forget:
WRITE_ON!
It has been fun for me, too. I almost hate to see the month end. More cards are going out this afternoon.

My last batch to my students and my supervisees went out yesterday morning. I'm going to be curious to see the response. It's been interesting and fun and I'm glad I acutally had the time this year to do something. Thanks for joining in, Pattie

You are so wise, Kat! Glad you enjoyed it! I'm bummed-I took my pretty Write_On pen to school that they sent and lost it somewhere along the way. Oh well-I guess I could buy one-I loved the way it wrote-Thanks and Love you-Laury

What color pen did you get in your kit? TM and I both got the bright red/coral color - Gellyroll says they write "ice cream smooth" - I agree on that note!

Mine was a greenie blueish color and I loved it-it was exactly that "ice cream smooth" feel and glide that made me fall in love with it. So much so, that I'm thinking I may have to order some. It's floating around somewhere at Tulane-perfect since the school colors are green and blue! Love you Kat-Laury
