Welcome to 𝙋𝙚𝙣 𝙋𝙖𝙡 𝘾𝙖𝙛𝙚, lovely. Before we start swapping handwritten letters, mailbox excitement, and tiny stationery-based serotonin, this is your gentle invitation to pull up a chair and say hello. No need for a polished life story. No need to sound clever, poetic, or like you’ve been writing letters by candlelight since 1987. Just share a little hello in the comments so we can get to know the women behind the envelopes. You might like to tell us: 💌 your name 📍 where you’re from ☕️ your favourite cuppa or cosy writing ritual ✍️ what intrigued you about joining Pen Pal Café 📬 when you last received a handwritten letter, if you can remember 💡𝗔 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗻 𝗣𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗮𝗳é 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗲: This space is intentionally 𝙙𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙣𝙚𝙙 𝙖 𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙙𝙞𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙡𝙮 to most communities. The connection itself happens through our handwritten letter exchanges — where women are thoughtfully matched and send real letters through the post — but this Skool space is where we gather the anticipation, the joy, the writing energy, and the little rituals around it. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸: letter hype, writing inspiration, mailbox excitement, sharing what you’re sending or receiving, endorphin moments when something lands in your letterbox, and our little Friday mail trivia. It’s a space for staying connected to the experience of writing, not just talking about it. To take part in an exchange (currently), you can choose: ✨ $3/month membership (all exchanges) 💌 $5 mini exchange (pay-as-you-go) one-off 💌 $7 full exchange (pay-as-you-go) one-off Everything runs through your 𝙀𝙭𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚 𝙋𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙡 (off of Skool), once you sign-up to your first round, where you’ll complete your details, view your match, and track your letters all in one place. And then when you're ready, head over to the Classroom and get acquainted with: • What the Exchange Is • How it Works
