Please, as a reminder, sign up again if you were signed up for this project on the hyphen site, because I have moved the project here instead. No limit to how many sign up but I will post when the sign up has closed, so that we can know how many projects to make and get started.

This project is being wrangled by me, meaning, everything gets mailed to me and I make up the packages and send them out. Anyone reading this post right now is welcome to participate, newbies as well as experienced pen pals. Any questions, just ask.

The theme of this pen pal project is addictions, such as alcohol, drugs, smoking, sex, food, love, video games, coffee, drama, shopping, gambling, television, working, Internet, or addiction in general without a specific focus. It can be about your addictions past or present or an addiction of someone from your life or even a famous person or a book you liked about addiction, whatever you are comfortable with. A serious interpretation of this theme or a light-hearted approach are both welcome.

You will make one project for each person who signs up. You can make all projects the same or each one different. You can specify who on the list you want to receive each of your projects or let me decide.

As far as what each of your projects are, that's up to you but just nothing too big or heavy or bulky, since I will be mailing them out. You can make a postcard or an art project or write about it or use a photo or music, whatever you like. You can spend a short amount of time on it and keep it simple or put a lot of time into it, all up to you.

Please include five dollars for mailing costs. I will mail them out at the end of June, so please send me your projects by then, a little earlier if you can manage it. Make one less than the number of people who sign up since I won't be mailing you one that was made by you.

This is such a good theme for me! I have been actively working on my relapse prevention and I think I can incorporate my work into this project.

Thank you
Jake

[JakeTulane]

Thanks, Jake!

I admit, I was initially a bit skeptic about how I could manage the project but I think it came together nicely.

I look forward to seeing what everyone else came/comes up with.

Jake, I don't know if you saw my post last week, but when I realized that I was going to miss the deadline to mail them to you, I decided to mail them out to everyone individually. I am SO sorry that I was late! It's the first, and hopefully last, time I've completely missed the deadline.

I have them packaged to go out, but due to some unexpected home repairs, I am OUT of money until I get paid Friday, so I'll get them out in the mail then.

Softness, could you PM your new address to me?

p.s. Jake - I included another "green" theme painting for you, since you didn't get yours in that round!

Gemmie - I got yours on Saturday and I LOVE it! How did you do the water??? It's fantastic and I'm terribly jealous that I didn't come up with it.

p.s. What type of glue did you use for the wood? I've tried five different types and I couldn't keep the bark that I wanted to use attached. I finally gave up and just painted it, but I had an idea that I think would have been great, if only I could make it work.

[JakeTulane]

Hi pure.. My apologies... no I did not see it. No worries on being late. Life does intervene.

I can not wait to see the "green theme" one as well. *smiles*

Thank you
Jake
