Letters: Does Anyone Still Write Them?

Letters & Essays

I enjoy writing letters, almost as much as I enjoy receiving them.

Why I Write

Letters & Essays

The past is just a goodbye unless it’s redeemed by words on paper.

“I’ve never had any desire to become a writer, no lifelong passion to write that finds its origin in a hated childhood or in a love for words. I stumbled upon it the same way a scientist stumbles upon a cure.”

Everyone has a story to tell. The brave ones write it down on paper, and then share it with strangers.

Smart women, fast cars, and old times are just some of my favorite things.

The truth takes time, I was told. It takes time to find it hidden among the infinity of lies. It takes time to tell it, to muster the courage necessary to release it unto an unwilling world. And it takes times to accept it, especially when no one else will. The truth will always take more time than a lie.

“The reason writers are such slow readers is that we are always on the search for things to steal and call our own.” _________________________________
