Great for posters to hang on your bedroom wall! In her day it was the Osmonds, the Jackson 5 and the Brady Bunch. For me it was Scott Baio (Happy Days), Greg Evigan (BJ & The Bear) and Jimmy McNicol (who??!). LOL.

It arrived in the mail last Friday, I just kept forgetting to come over and say a HUGE thanks. Secondly, I love this post! So, your were always going to be a mag editor hey! That's amazing. And how awesome that Ita would write you a letter encouraging you as a writer. That is unreal. Can I say that you have been one of my greatest encouragements with my writing to date. Your wonderful mag is only the second that I have had the blessing of being able to write for (not including one on line publication) and I know I still have sooooo much to learn. But you are willing to be encouraging and it means the world to me. Thank you. You are a blessing. Tab :) Hi Janet,

With the advent of email many more people have picked up penpals, although they wouldn't call them that. I wonder if there are people in the world who maintained their continuity from writing letters to exchanging emails?
