No mail in the U.S. today
Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the United States. It's a federal holiday, so no mail will be delivered.
Letter #18
Letter writing topic for January 18, 2010:
Today, write a fan letter. Pick a favorite celebrity — movie or TV star, musician, dancer, theater actor, singer, writer, artist, etc. It may take a little work on your part to find an address, but many celebrities have Web sites that list their agent's address. In your letter, explain why you're a fan, mention specific projects that you've enjoyed. Just don't be stalkerish about it.

Letter writing topic for January 17, 2010:
Today, on this day that is filled with so many distressing news stories, write a letter that is full of good news. Forget for a moment all of your troubles and pains. Look for the beauty and hope in life and write about that to someone who could use a happy letter. It might do you as much good as it does the recipient of your letter.

Love Letters
The article in "Reader's Digest" is good and features lots of pictures and background stories of love letters.
A little research turned up this old posting of Shapiro's on the Huffington Post. It offers some insight into how he got interested in "Other People's Love Letters."
Letter #15
Letter writing topic for January 15, 2010:
Today, write a letter in a wacky color of ink. Dark blue and black inks might be easiest to read in some cases, but you can write in purple, red, green, etc. If you're using a light color of ink, such as a white or yellow gel, try writing on dark colored paper. Don't be afraid to use bold pens, such as felt-tip. Using a different color of ink just adds an element of fun to your letter writing.
