It seems to make the week go faster knowing I’m going to hear your voice. I’ll be on hand tomorrow night waiting for that call from you. Just a line because I have to get up early tomorrow morning to go to the clinic.įinished the embroidery on both the pink & blue squares (both floss not flannel) They both look cute as can be.
Doran, Squadon A MAAF Merced, California. I’m looking through a box of letters written by my (late) mother (known as Mort) to my father, Pvt. But it could also fall flat, in which case I’ll delete it and pretend it never happened. I’ll work out a way to compile and share these letters in the near future, assuming I can get the necessary permission. And I’ll be replying to as many of you as humanly possible. It might become a permanent home for suggestions. I’ll be keeping this discussion open indefinitely. A letter is a letter is a letter, and I’m here for them all. It can be profound, silly, heartbreaking, long, short. It can be a letter from a published collection of correspondence or a biography, or even a letter you’ve sent/received yourself. It could be a letter I’ve previously shared, or, better still, a letter I’m yet to mention. Paste a couple of lines or just point me to the right book or website or source and I’ll try my best to find it.
Let me/all of us know in the comments below. So I thought I’d try something a bit different with one of these open threads, which I’ve also never tried, and ask you very simply: For fourteen years I’ve been harping on about the correspondence that grabs me, building up a hefty following of likeminded individuals along the way, and I’ve largely kept it one-sided, and in doing so I’ve probably, in fact definitely, missed out on countless opportunities to broaden my horizons. It occurred to me this morning that I have never, as far as I can remember, asked you-the devoted readers of Letters of Note-about your favourite letters, which seems even more absurd as I type it out.
