In an instant you can chat with someone on the other side of the world, but what happens when that becomes mundane? Sometimes all the media in your life can start to wear you out. Take a break from technology and kick it old school. Show off your penmanship and take a crack at good old-fashioned letter writing!<\/p>\n<p>Maybe it\u2019s been a while since you\u2019ve written a letter. That\u2019s all right. Here\u2019s an easy way to get started:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make a list of all the things you want to say.<\/li>\n<li>Pick out your favorite topics from that list.<\/li>\n<li>Expand on those topics until you have a draft of the letter.<\/li>\n<li>Read draft and revise.<\/li>\n<li>Find the appropriate paper for your real letter and go to town!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Try starting a story together. You can write a couple sentences or a paragraph and mail it along with your letter. Your friend can continue the story and mail it back to you. Before you know it, it will be easy\u00a0to keep in touch. As the story progresses you\u2019ll want to know what happens next!\u00a0Feel free to add doodles and artwork to really personalize your letter.
