Does anyone on /lit/ have a pen pal?
Most famous writers have corresponded with letters that, at least academically, are just as important as their actual work: Keats, Hemingway,Joyce, the list goes on. So do YOU have a pen pal, /lit/?
Side note: I've really wanted to try signing up for interpals, but I have no idea what the community's like or if it's worth it.

No, and interpals really isn't worth it.
Letters are old hat, now it's all about social media posts. People can't be legitimately introspective or private anymore.

That's a pretty bleak outlook on things. Doesn't the prevalence of mass communication and societal whoring only heighten the impact of a letter?

I have someone I semi-regularly correspond with in a letter-like format. It just sort of developed on its own due to shared interests. Signing up for a program to do something like that seems a bit forced to me.

I used to. I stopped replying. I am ashamed.
