Penpals!?

I recently got super into Penpalery. Penpalship. Penpalifilia, Penpalifinalea, Penpalerific, Penpaling. There are many ways to put it, but I’m writing people all over the world, and it’s really fun. I use the service International Pen Friends, and I have to say, it’s very legit. You give them some money, and they will send you 14 addresses all over the world to write. In addition, they add you to 14 lists, so you’ll get mail from people who aren’t on your list! I have over 20 letters now, and I’m really enjoying it. You can specify your age group too, and It’s been a good mix from 29-45. (I’m 36 in June.) I’ve also been making stationary, and I think I’ll be doing more of that later. (or continue to wipe out Daiso Japan, my main source for cute stationary.) Getting back into Anime has helped me feel like drawing again which is really nice, and penpalism is a great outlet to do something creative without it taking HOURS. I’m looking at you, SEWING. Anyway, here are some doodles from the custom stationary I made to introduce myself to new penpals!
