As I wrap up my workday, I recount the moments when I paused to notice something worth slicing about. The thing is, in between busy meetings or tasks, my mind went to my current book club pick:

Letters.
The power of the written word.
The significance of sharing our writing with others.
The gift of writing to others.
We should be writing more letters.
I should be writing more letters.
I realize this is something worth diving into, but I want to hug my baby before we head home. Perhaps I’ll get to write about this with Giovanna on Thursday night 🙂
Ana,
I read The Correspondence last year. Loved the characters and Sybil’s letters. It would be lovely to write and receive letters again, wouldn’t it?

I would love to hear more…perhaps write a letter alongside you. Looking forward to seeing you on Thursday!

I love this book, and I don’t normally seek out best sellers. This one touched the heart. As goes cursive writing, so goes correspondence!

This is one of my favorite books, along with Theo of Golden, which also features handwritten letters. I used to write so many letters! But not for a long time. I miss getting letters, too.

I am loving this book. So many lines I want to underline, but I’ve been reading in bed with no pen! 😅
I’d write to yooou

Loved this book, as well as your thoughts about it here. Writing letters – definitely a lost art and a missing piece of future history.

How cool that you meet to write. I know people do that, but I never have. Also, The Correspondent is the rare book that I actually bought after I’d read it, a gem, and a testament to directing writing to a specific audience. Take every hug you can get!
