Make Believe
It’s that time of year when it’s acceptable - even encouraged - to put on a costume and be someone else for a day. Make believe is still fun at any age. Especially in challenging times, it helps us escape realities and be light, even if it’s brief.
You can play a little make believe with your postcard writing:
Erin as Dusty Bottoms, Sara as Ned Nederlander, and me as Lucky Day; Halloween 2009
Describe your Halloween costume: this year’s, or a favorite from the past. My personal favorite is my Three Amigos costume with my pals Sara and Erin. Good stories accompany that memory.
Write to a friend who likes games. Make a plan for getting lost in a world of real estate tycoons, mansion murder, or whatever video game the kids are playing these days.
Write as an alter ego. Write from your pet. Write something goofy. Be playful.
Write to your real-life superhero about how their superpowers have saved you.
Play is good for us, darlings. Grab a pen and get silly.
Congratulations to Parmeet Arora Bori, winner of our Halloween Postcard Design Contest.
Ready to get started?
We’ll send your custom selection postcards every month. Send a love note, well wishes, congratulations, a dad joke, or whatever’s on your mind.
New! Choose to have postcards stamps included, or opt for no stamps (a good choice if you're hand-delivering your postcards).
All cards are on premium paper and regulation postcard size. The designs you’ll receive: that part’s a surprise. But we’re really quite sure you’ll love ‘em.
