More from the NPR series

I came across Julija Ĺ ukys' blog about letters and letter-writing, and along with it, the link to another part of the NPR series on the mail. 

Julija is a writer who uses letters a lot in her research. Here's part of what she has to say:

I work with letters because I like the intimacy they afford. Piecing a story together through an unexamined correspondence is a way to tap into untold stories and to break new ground. Reading letters also gives me a glimpse into the ways in which people meld writing and life and make sense of their time on earth.
The NPR segment, Mailed Memories: Your Cherished Letters, includes copies of letters, postcards and other mail that people submitted for the project.
