Molly L

I’m a woman and I was born July 1, 1963.
About me: I am looking for a few more snail mail friends. Women only 18 and up. I like to read and listen to books and podcasts, fly kites, jigsaw puzzles, crochet, write short stories, coloring (I like to play with color), and a variety of music genres. I collect a few different things but I don’t have a lot of any particular one. I love animals and would have a million of them if I could afford it. I enjoy a small flower garden, container gardening, and a small vegetable garden. Feeding the birds and the crazy neighborhood squirrels is a hobby. I also keep Mr. Toad’s home under the deck comfortable, soon he will be hibernating. I have a few pets that brighten my days. I also collect rocks and put them in my rock tumbler. I usually write medium to long letters and always by hand. I don’t mind typed letters but expect them to be personal and not a "one size fits all" (because they don’t) letter.
Kind of pen pal I am looking for: I am looking for women (only) snail mail friends who write medium to long letters and reply regularly. Where you live and what race you are doesn’t matter to me. Decorated, undecorated, tuck ins, no tuck ins, plain paper, pretty stationery whichever you do or use is fine with me. Your story and friendship are what’s important to me. Someone who is able to have conversations on paper that can be ongoing if there is interest.
