Feel free to post more than that as well!

Hi Zoe. I can't see who I'm paired with

Hey. I noticed my partner and I are up there twice. The first time I'm PenPal 1, second time she is PenPal 1. I already reached out first. I hope that was okay!

Hi Patricia, you are paired with Barbara Marcotte , using Snail Mail Letters. You'll need to message each other to get addresses of course!

Happy PenPal'ing

Will do.

If your partner never reached out to you now would be a great time to try reaching out to them! Pen Pal 2 feel free to reach out to try to get conversation started (:

OMG that's amazing! I'm so happy it's going so well (: Great job you guys!

I have mailed Kristina once waiting on her letter

Ericka and I are emailing every few days. We have found out a bit about each other. It has been great talking to someone and and learning about them.

I'm so glad (: Keep us posted!

Got a letter from Kristina will send the next one by Friday.

I just got Kristyns letter today and will mail my response tomorrow (: Love new pen pals!

Anastasia and I have written to eachother twice.

Reminder that this challenge ends in June! That gives you a little more than a month to message your pen pal partner and get going if you haven't already! Once you've communicated at least twice, post here and let us know how it's going!

If you're having issues (for example, if your partner isn't responding) please message me so I can help you (:

You can also refill out the form HERE to be matched with another pen pal!
