Snail Mail

Are you fed-up with garbage, full-of-shit sites where nobody actually communicates, such as Facebook, Instagram and Tumblr? Do you wish your old friends who've migrated to those sites would return to LiveJournal? The the_lj_revival community has been set up with that aim in mind, and you are invited to join it. If you are already on LiveJournal and still have a Facebook profile, and would like to see more people returning to LJ or setting up accounts here, we invite you to post a link to this community on your Facebook Timeline. If you would like to find out who is still using LiveJournal and make contact with those who are already here, you are invited to copy and paste the 'about me' questions on the profile page and post them with your answers to the community.

Hello my friends!  My name is Stephanie and I am looking to pass on some Friendship Book, Sheets, Label Bags, etc, to someone who actively uses and passes them.  I have swapped many of these via Swap-Bot, which is also a fun way to swap.

I have am also interesting in pen palling, if anyone is also interested in a letter swap!  I am a vegan and spend a lot of time outdoors.  I also have a cat named Myrtle whom I spend a lot of time with on a regular basis.  I like to write and travel, which is one of the reasons why I enjoy working in a hotel due to the travel discounts.  I am 32 years of age and was born on Mothers Day (May 12) in 1985.  I have a huge vinyl collection.  I also spend a lot of time in libraries and bookstores.  I am a bourbon and red wine drinker.

I am only looking for penpals that are female and over the age of 21.  

Name: You can call me Miaulin, Rowana, or MaKaylah. Or anything else, really. :D
Age: 18
Religion: Christian, Baptist to be specific.
Gender: Female
Location: Selma, AL
Occupation: Still a student, also novelist.
Languages Spoken: English, some Khuzdul and Sindarin ;)
Looking for: Somebody to talk to, a friend, anything, really.
E-mail Address: I can be reached at rangerflynnrider@yahoo.com
Do you want new livejournal friends?: I don't mind, though there's nothing in my journal yet.

Hobbies/Interests: Writing, reading, fandom-ing. I play the violin rather poorly at present but intend to improve. Art, cooking, drawing...really, I'm interested in most things even if they aren't my actual hobbies.
Music: A huge variety that includes a lot of movie soundtracks.
Books: anything Tolkien or Charles Dickens. Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes, The Name of the Wind, Ranger's Apprentice, Divergent, lots more.
TV: Doctor Who, Fullmetal Alchemist, Full Metal Panic!, Sherlock, Merlin, Covert Affairs, Criminal Minds, White Collar, Spice and Wolf, sometimes Downton Abbey
Movies: pretty much anything by Disney! How to Train Your Dragon, Studio Ghibli, The Last Samurai, The Bourne series, Mission Impossible, Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, The Lego Movie, Harry Potter


How many penpals do you have?: unless my Facebook friends from other states count, none yet.
How many pen pals do you want?: As many as actually want to talk to me.
How long are your letters?: As long as you like. I do better replying to things for a while, but once we've gotten to know each other more I can be chatty enough to irritate a little.
Do you hand-write or type?: Either one! My own handwriting can be awful sometimes, so I do understand if you'd rather type.
What age would you like your pen pal to be?: At least around seventeen or eighteen, but I don't care how much older.
Would you like them to be male or female?: either
Where would you like them to be from: It doesn't matter to me :D


Other: I can be a bit odd for the first couple of replies, and would prefer to be written first- otherwise I'll never work up the nerve to write- and I also like to send small gifts to my friends, usually crocheted hats or scarves, or drawings if you wouldn't object to my doing so.

Mostly I've just been a bit lonely and would love to have letters in the mailbox for once :)

Interests: Animation of any kind, cartoons and anime, movies and music, history and radical critical analysis of current world system, writing books/fanfiction and reading them, spirituality/magic/taboo/mystery/paranormal, travelling the world and experiencing 'different culinary thingies', researching magical creatures and foreign mites, love to analyse human mind, love to give out little presents and make people happy and content.

PEN PALS: I would rather write snail mail letters than email letters because I want to exercise the artistic side of me - also I feel handwritten stuff feels more personal.
So... I would like 2-3 pen pals, age 18 and up to immortal. I don't care about gender but would like to point out I only want to meet friends, I hope for a long-lasting friendship actually... But I won't push if someone only wants to be an acquaintance at best.

I write medium - long letters, write them as soon as I can but life can interfere - just so you know.

Also, we don't have to have everything in common. If you like and accept me you can write me,
I don't mind a good debate and difference in opinion.

Hope you want to be my pen pal?

I dont want to sound horrible, but I've been looking for new penpals for a while now and whilst people on here reply saying they will. I get about one letter and thats it. I'm getting a little tired of it.
