Description:

This is a little bit of a different spin on the traditional zine swap. I am putting together a snail mail themed zine as per this post: http://wingedsnailmail.tumblr.com/post/88204793321/winged-snail-mail-zine

This swap will be a way to include more voices in that zine. Please answer the following questions and email them to your partner as well as me - my email address is [email protected]

Short sign up and completion because it's electronic.

  1. Why do you participate in ‘snail mail’?
  2. What does your writing hobbies look like? What types of things do you regularly send?
  3. Do always choose snail mail over e-mail? In what cases/reasons do you use e-mail?
  4. What are your favorite snail mail themed sites/blogs/projects?
  5. Do you make ‘mail art’? Why do you include/exclude your mail from that category?
  6. How long have you been sending snail mail?
  7. Do you view your participation in snail mail as revolutionary in any way?
  8. Do you have any pre-letter traditions?
  9. Do you collect postage stamps? Do you notice postage stamps at all?
  10. If you were looking for advice regarding snail mail - what would your question be? (For example, someone interested in fountain pens might have questions regarding the type of paper best for fountain pens.)

Any questions?

If you aren't interested in this swap - feel free to submit to the zine! :)
