About Me

Hello. I'm Dee.

Canadian wordsmith, female. Fluent in English. Art history minor. Huge fan of science and psychology. Bookworm open to book suggestions. Tea fiend.

Allergic to cats and dogs so please be mindful of the fur when you mail me something. Thank you in advance.

I had a personal project to handwrite 5,000 letters, no deadline. And I wrote the last letter of that project in Dec 2019. Took me 10.5 years to complete it.

Still writing snail mail but not tracking the recipients in my agenda anymore.

I tried to write a Thank You card each day February 2020 for #InCoWriMo. It wasn't so bad. I only missed three days in total and made it up each time the next day by sending two thanks instead of one. I feel thankful for many different people.


Curious about people and places abroad. When I travel, I enjoy talking to locals, visiting museums, and people-watching in coffee shops. I read the community newspaper to see what matters to those who live there.


In our world today, a lot is happening and draining both your mental and emotional reserves. Sometimes, you forget your own achievements and the good that is happening around you.

If you aren't sure what to write to me but want to write something, here are some questions for you to pick from:

  • What three things went well today?
  • How are you treating your mind and body this week?
  • How are you respecting your limits?
  • Who or what are you grateful for this week?
  • What is something you want to try but need a bit of courage to take that first step?

Focus on what matters to you.

P.S.

Swap for the love of swapping, not ratings, hearts, or comments. If you wish to send extras, that's at your discretion.

Update: SEPT 2023

Been on a swap-bot break for almost two years now. Tentatively getting back into it. Mindful not to burn myself out again.

Thank you to everyone's patience. May you have a wonderful week, wherever you are.

Comment: /thanks for your note and the lovely PC. My mind is fine. I enjoy being slightly crazy. I try to treat my body well but my knee is fighting back. The joke will be on it as it is soon to be replaced. It is hard, even for mature individuals, to survive the music industry intact.

Comment: Hello! Wow! Your postcard contained as much as a letter! I absolutely loved it! And it was so calming to read! You have beautiful handwriting! I love how some how you still managed to decorate the postcard! You are a true artist of postcards! I will have to check out the series on Netflix you mentioned! And I'm going to try the electrolytes next month! Thank you for being you! ❤

Comment: Thank you for the teas! You have such neat handwriting. I really like the Lady Gray tea but have never had lychee tea. I'm not sure what i will have with them. Usually i drink tea by itself. I like all the stickers you used, too!

The postcard you sent me was stunning! Thank you so much, I love it!

Thank for the note and stickers. I wasn't expecting it so it made me smile. Can't wait to try the tea.

Thank you for the note, shaped postcards, washi and address labels. I am glad that you really liked the food washi that I sent you in the WTL-Food washi swap.

Thank you so much for your CHARMING note. The envelope out of paper was so delicate and lovely, it was hard to open! Thank you so much for your sweet note and goodies. It's absolutely lovely to swap mail with you!

mortelumina on Oct 30, 2021:

Hi Dee! Thank you for the kind post card. I'm really sorry I forgot to put the swap name on Tea For Two #3. That's usually the very first thing I do when starting on a letter, so my mind must have been somewhere else in the moment. I hope you are enjoying the tea and having a very lovely autumn.

kssunlover1947 on Oct 26, 2021:

Thank you for the fun thank you postcard that I received today. I am glad that you can use the stickers I sent you. Your card made me smile as all the rest of the mail today was junk. I am doing good here. Thursday I get my covid booster shot. Glad that I will have them all before the holidays. Have a great day and stay safe and well.

RealRhinoMan on Oct 21, 2021:

annanymark on Oct 11, 2021:

Hello! Thank you so much for sending me a letter after the WTL: sender’s choice-swap ❤️ That was really nice of you!

BooksPaperNature on Sep 10, 2021:

Hi Dee, thank you for writing back from the washi scavenger hunt swap! Getting any mails always brighten my day, and this was a very hear-warming one. The bread washi tape made me laugh, and ocean floor one is gorgeous! The teas you sent are new to me, and I look forward to trying them :)

Bikinina on Jul 14, 2021:

Dear Dee, I received your thank you postcard for the Bee ATC! It is pretty fun-filled with all the message, stickers and stamps, especially the one with your very nice pic. It really brightens my day! ...I did not do much during the past weekend to treat myself. Well, I bought some new fabric to make new clothes I wear when I stay home, just simple and comfortable ones. I don't make them by myself though. I leave them at a dressmaker in my neighborhood. Thank you again! :)
