I've been procastinating way too much and it only got worse once I got back to work. Hopefully this declaration of my failure will get my ass in motion on this.

My advice, don't over-think it. Even a post card to begin will do well to get the ball rolling. I didn't write much to begin with, but as we get to know one another I am confident I will have more to say.

Good luck and have fun!

Yep, doesn't have to be perfect, just put the pen against paper and move it around, and once it's done stick it in a mailbox. I'm treating it like a writing assignment and sending out one a month regardless of whether I get replies or not, since regularity is good for me. Second batch is on its way!

One a month seems a reasonable expectation to me.
