I noticed on the penpal page that you mentioned your daughter has a penpal group on yahoo. Would be interested in knowing more about that and how to get in contact with them.

Am 40 yrs old, looking for penpals but some of the members here are a bit young. Looking for penpals around my age group with some of the same interests.

Looking forward to hearing back from you :)

At 8:28pm on May 8, 2011, Beth M said…: a perzine is short for "personal zine" - a zine about you, whatever you want it to be about that relates to you. your likes, dislikes, you writing about events in your life, etc. there's not really a strict guideline to writing them (well, there isn't really of any zines, but especially not perzines as everyone's unique). :] I hope that helps clear that up.
