- How and why did you
start pen palling?
Well, I don’t really have any friends so one night in 2009 I was searching around the internet, wondering if there was still such a thing. Well lo and behold, I came across a website called interpals.net and am still paling with some of the girls who were my first pals.

- What do you
like/dislike about pen palling?
I like that you can be yourself. Usually, well, I have found that when you meet a person they judge you, based on what you look like, how you act, etc. And become your friend to see what they can get out of you. I have had friends in the past that have written me e-mails saying that they hated being my friend. Yes, true story. What I dislike about pen-paling is when someone is requiring rules. I mean, sometimes when I have the time I will go all out on making my letter fantabulous, sometimes it may be a intro letter. And then later on they’re like, “How come you haven’t wax sealed your letters in a while?” Um… excuse me? We are all living busy and hecktic lives. I do not always HAVE THE TIME to wax seal letters, you know?

- What do you look
for in a pen pal?
Someone who I have common interests with. Someone who is loyal, and doesn’t write more than a paragraph. Someone who doesn’t judge

- Where do you find
new pen pals at? Do you rely on friendship books, Facebook, or other
websites/blogs?
Well, I started out on the interpals site, but then I went to facebook and then just continued to stay around there. I am not to keen on FB’s because I don’t want any possible creepers getting my address

I have my own 3 ring binders for those I write with often. I don’t have a binder for everyone, I have a couple zippy large ones that I place possible “own folder” pen-pals. I should create a fact sheet, but I haven’t done that yet
