The Month of Letters returns!

[swan_tower]

As you may recall, last year I particpated in Mary Robinette Kowal's Month of Letters challenge, inviting people to write letters to the characters from the Onyx Court series. I sent replies on old-fashioned paper, handwritten with a dip pen, sealed with wax, and generally had a blast.

This year, your correspondent will be Isabella, protagonist of A Natural History of Dragons. The book isn't out quite yet, of course -- next Tuesday!!! -- but you'll still have most of February in which to meet Isabella via fiction and then write to her via post.

Send your letters to:

Marie Brennan
P.O. Box 6802
San Mateo, CA 94403

IMPORTANT: Address the outside envelope to me, not to Isabella. Otherwise your letter may get bounced by the post office as being for a recipient not at that address. ALSO IMPORTANT: Include your return address! Otherwise I can't write back.

Now if you'll pardon me, I have to go practice my cursive again. It's gotten rusty since last year . . . .

It's so, so cool that you're doing this - just had to say that, even though I probably won't have time to participate (stupid bookstore won't get it until mid-February, sniff, but at least they'll reserve a copy for me).

Awww! Well, anything mailed before the end of February is fair game, so maybe you'll have time to sneak one in?
