Welcome to Litsy!

I was pleasantly diverted, but there was a lot more following directions and flipping back and forth and trying to figure out where to restart than I thought. There was certainly a creative variety in the kinds of endings, but I think most of the time, even if it's not a linear narrative, I'd prefer a series of short stories that, at least PHYSICALLY, you read from front to back. I feel like such a buzzkill. 🤦🏼‍♂️#nostalgiaread

To my pen pals. I am sorry I have not written in a while. The last several months have been very rough. I may not be able to write for a while but you are in my heart and I send positive energy your way. Stay awesome and thank you for writing to me and being my pal.

I picked up my little one from school last week and saw him quietly sitting by himself. Bored. I looked at our local Target and couldn‘t find any story cubes- thank goodness for Amazon Prime! I ordered these scary, glow in the dark, BIG story cubes and he loves them! He keeps them in his backpack for school, but brings them out and shared with us after dinner. I hope B&N has some, my 10 year old wants some too 🤓Any other Littens use these?

Just saw this and I love the idea of a pen pal! I haven‘t had one since I was a kid! Can you tell I‘m super excited about participating? 🙋🏻‍♀️i volunteer! Currently, I‘m in Ohio, but I left my heart in Texas and Ireland. 💔 Thank you @TheReadingMermaid for hosting this pen-pal match up! #penpalexchange

Dear @MatchlessMarie , something is flying towards you on tiny wings. It will arrive tomorrow. It should have a note tied to its tiny foot saying who sent it. This is just in case it doesn‘t. #Penpals

Just waiting on the books to come in for #easterbasketbookswap @chelreads and then that will be on its way to you too!! I was hoping they would be in today, but if I have to express shipping, I will 😊 @Melissa_J This one is on its way to you!! Told you I didn't forget

These are heading out to my wonderful penpals tomorrow! @12parsecs @Aswenson

Thanks so much @collegecatlady Everything is so perfect! As you can see, Watson is very interested in it all too, not just the treats (you picked his favorites!)

@collegecatlady your package arrived safe and sound and is sitting under my partially decorated tree. I'm so excited!

Hi my #litsypenpals @collegecatlady and @bookhoarder513 ! Your packages are on their way!

Hey @TrishB some Christmas goodies are on their way to you! Thank you for being such a fab penpal! #litsypenpalschristmasspecial #awesomenessgoespostal

Thank you so much for the awesome Halloween package @Bookishgal71! Sorry I opened it early, I was so excited to get it I didn't even notice the Halloween decorations on the box until later! 😬 That mug is adorable and will be used daily for tea. The clips will be perfect on my photo board. And those stickers are currently coveted by my 3yo. She'll enjoy them tomorrow! You're the best! #litsypenpal

Creating more one of a kind envelopes for my Litsy pen-pals 💌 I've sent emails to my pen pals and only received three back.....

My lovely #LitsyPenPal @Smarkies sent me this a few weeks ago. She lives in Malaysia and this is a pop up card of mansion. I've been neglectful in thanking her publicly and will be sending her a package from Georgia very soon! Thanks Sharm!

@Jerdencon #LitsyPenPal headed to your doorstep!

PENPAL MAIL! @12parsecs

Don't mind the crappy picture quality #ineedanewphone but I finally got my #LitsyPenPals letter in the mail today!!!! Keep an eye on your mailbox @AprilMaesBookHabit cause it's coming your way!! My first letter probably sucks haha but I haven't had a #penpal in at least 20 years or more so bare with me lol

My first penpal letter! It's very likely to have been in the mailbox since Thursday or Friday lol thank you @Aswenson I will be sending out something first part of next week.

Got my first #LitsyPenPal letter, complete with a gorgeous bookmark! (As evidenced by the envelope, I very excitedly tore into it.)

I got my first letter sometime last week (I was bad at checking the mail while in vacation) and another surprise today, both from @collegecatlady ! The book sounds right up my alley. Watson approves. Reply coming soon! #Litsypenpals #CatsofLitsy

I'm taking the plunge. If I get a zombie for a pen pal that is fine, just no trolls, please. Perhaps that should have been a question: zombie or troll?
I have successfully had 2 pen pals before, long ago, both in foreign lands. 1- I ended up dating, the other I had to back off from. Eventually neither worked out, but I miss the letters. I was a very silly girl. I guess that's what happens, you grow up & miss the letters. #litsypenpals
