Pen pals update

December was probably the wrong month to start. Even while work may ease off for some, it's always a busy time of year with the holidays.

A couple of good threads were started but life got in the way and there is so much more to explore with these folks that I hope we can continue throughout 2024.

It was always my intention/wish for conversations to become more long term and established, rather than fitting a monthly schedule, and that is still the goal — building friendships over time.

Using this format as a tool to get to know someone seems like a surprisingly good one. There appears to be a certain willingness to open up and share. Trying to condense a lifetime of experience into a few emails instills a particular focus when you know there is limited time and scope.

While I still don't intend to operate on any kind timetable I am keen to continue. Let me know if you're interested and, maybe, check out the penpals page for some more info.
