This will be a project in conjunction with A Home Within Myself and Raising Mothers. For those of you who know Mother Mail, I’m bringing my baby back with a twist. For those who don’t, Mother Mail was originally called The Great Postcard Swap, a snail-mail event I put together when I first moved to Europe a decade and a half ago. It was an effort to combat my sudden loneliness and not having my friends IRL anymore. From this activity, I made some wonderful new friends that I’m still friends with to this day.

Once I started Raising Mothers, I got the itch to do something for parents. I wanted to comfort mothers who might feel detached from the world and could look forward to a small token of acknowledgment at least once a month from someone. Enter Mother Mail—a penpal group for moms.

Now, I’m bringing it back for a limited time. And it’s rebranded. Lit Lib Pen Pal Club can be lots of fun if we all do our part.
