HEADS - "Chain"

Make any kind of post using any form of the word "Chain"

There are so many ways I could use chain there is a chain of friends, a chain of issues, a chain of letters and a chain of blogs that I seem to have accumulated. I am a little brain drained right now and not sure where to start with this one.

I think since I have been writing so many letters lately I will go with a chain of letters. Last week alone I wrote 11 letters and I am not talking about one-page ditties either. I like to write nice long missives. The art of letter writing is important to me and I think if you are going to send a letter, you should put some effort time and thought into it. Recently I have been reading a wonderful book called the Missive Maven and she gets and sends some beautiful letters the mail itself is art. While I have not yet found the time to make, my own envelopes and art in that fashion I think that letters can be artful too.

So I have a chain of letter writing going on. With my pen pals of course but also in the way, I have been setting up how I write. I get a letter in I open it with my trusty letter opener read it and than put it in line. I have a first in first out strategy so I do not start playing favorites.

That being said I would not trade my letter writing for anything. And I am giving some serious consideration to flipping this blog into a more letter writing style blog now that doesn’t mean I will give up my Meme’s totally but I love the layout of the Missive Mavens blog and I think I will also post an open invite to getting letters and mail art.

Stay tuned…and see how my chain continues to grow.
