Friend Emails, "Round Robin" Writing, and Photography

It would be very nice to have a Pen Pal to share emails with each day and become friends. I would really look forward to that each day.


A little about me: I am a 71 year old lady, I live in the U.S., I am retired, and I am divorced but my daughter and I care for my ex-husband because he is in bad health. I will not abandon him, he is and will always be my dear friend.


We have five adult children, ten grandchildren, and eight great grandchildren. Hobbies: I really enjoy "round robin" writing if anyone is interested in writing a mystery and/or science fiction along with me with a bit of comedy and romance to enhance the story. It would be just for fun but it would be great to become a screenwriter.


Photography is a passion of mine but it has become somewhat restricted as many things have because of covid-19.


Machine embroidery is another one of my hobbies. Naturally there is so much more I could list but I would love to know more about you if you would care to write me.


I look forward to hearing from you soon. Kindest regards, Amber

Golly gosh Amber, it is a long time since you posted! Are you still in need of pen pals?
I put my own ad out there years ago and initially had quite a few replies but none lasted very long. I remain in irregular contact with a lady i Scotland but she is barely literate which makes decent communication very difficult and frustrating.
You sound a busy and interesting lady - one with a beautiful name.

I enjoy creative writing and belong to a group here where I live in a seaside town in West Somerset.
Have just bought a new sewing machine and looking forward to turning the mass of cloth and fabric I have hoarded over 40 years into clothes and homewares soon.
I LOVE food. Cooking and eating.

But I won't waffle on until I hear back from you in the hope you have a vacancy for another correspondent.

Kind regards.
Sheila

Hi Bilbomum! I saw your reply fairly recently and thought I would reach out. I am 62, married, and am in the US. While I still work I do like writing and hope to pursue it more seriously when I retire in a few years.

Would enjoy chatting sometime. Thanks!
