I recently came across an interesting concept. Stephen Elliott, editor of the online magazine The Rumpus, offers a service called "Letters in the Mail." According to the website, subscribers receive a letter three times a month from a different author. The letters are photocopied by The Rumpus staff and mailed out to the subscribers, who pay $5 per month for U.S. addresses or $10 for international addresses.The Letters in the Mail project has been going on for several months, and Elliott recently announced a similar project for kids, featuring letters by children's book authors.
I don't know much about Elliott or the project, but if you're interested in letters, you might want to check it out.
Huh....that is an interesting idea. I probably won't subscribe, even if it is insanely awesome because money is just that tight right now, but it sounds really cool. I am def going to check it out!
