Letter writing is a lost art. Letter Writers Alliance is upholding the tradition with an excellent website filled with resources like pages of exhibits, free downloads, tutorials, mail and stamp art, postal news, and stamp releases.
Here’s their mission statement:
In this era of instantaneous communication, a handwritten letter is a rare and wondrous item. The Letter Writers Alliance is dedicated to preserving this art form; neither long lines, nor late deliveries, nor increasing postal rates will keep us from our mission.
As a member of the Letter Writers Alliance, you will carry on the glorious cultural tradition of letter writing. You will take advantage of every opportunity to send tangible correspondence. Prepare your pen and paper, moisten your tongue, and get ready to write more letters!
