2019 Spring Pen Friend Exchange

The Spring Exchange has closed but please visit the link above to submit your application for our next exchange. Summer exchange will open in June!

It's time for the Spring Pen Friend Exchange! Welcome!

If you enjoy handwritten correspondence with like-minded women, The Victorian Letter Writers Guild may be for you! Check out the site and see what you think. Then, follow the instructions below to be assigned a penfriend for this round. Signups close March 22.

If you've participated in the past: Please note that you do NOT have to give up your former pen friends! This exchange is for an additional pen friend, so if you're enjoying corresponding with your match from an earlier round, please continue to do so!

Here's what you need to know:

• While we are very happy to fellowship with all humankind on this site, this particular exchange is for ladies only. If someone would like to organize a mixed-gender exchange, please do so and let me know so I can give you a shout-out here!
• This is an international exchange but introductory letters must be written in English. (If you and your partner decide to write in a more familiar language after, that is fine.)
• A minimum of one letter to your partner is required. If you decide to continue the correspondence after that, wonderful!
• I am not responsible for "flakers", but anyone who does not keep their commitment will not be included in further exchanges.
• Privacy Statement: Your information will only be given to your assigned pen friend. I will not use it for any kind of advertising, marketing, or other commercial purposes, nor will I publish it in any form. There is no fee to join the Guild---it's strictly for fun and fellowship. I will add your email to a list for my own purposes and will only send emails regarding the pen friend exchange or other Guild activities I think you might be interested in, such as giveaways or letter writing challenges. I will not add you to my blog subscription list but there is a link on the sidebar to do so if you wish.

Are you ready for a new pen friend? Copy and paste the answers to the following questions in an email and send it to: sarah@classicalhomemaking.com.

 *Please note: I can only read and write English. 

Please send your application in English. Thank you!
