Why a handwritten love letter beats a text

A text gets read in two seconds and buried by lunch. A letter gets opened slowly, read twice, and kept: on her mirror, in a drawer, in a box she will still have in thirty years. The words can be the same. The paper is what makes them stay.

What if my handwriting is terrible?

That is the whole reason this exists. You type it. A machine with a real ballpoint pen writes it in one of 57 real hands, from neat print to loose cursive. Pick one close to yours, or the one you wish you had. It is still your words, every one of them.

What do I write in a love letter?

Three things, in any order: one specific moment you keep thinking about, one thing about her that nobody else notices, and what you want the two of you to have next. That is a love letter. It does not need poetry and it should not sound like a greeting card. The full version is in how to write a love letter; a shorter list is in what to write in a love letter.

Example

Amanda, I keep thinking about the gas station in Sweetwater. You were laughing so hard at nothing that the guy at the pump looked over, and I remember thinking: I would drive anywhere if this is what the drive is like. You notice when I go quiet. Nobody else does. You just put your hand on my arm and wait, and I don't know how you learned that but I'm glad you did. I want more of the boring stuff with you. Grocery runs. Tuesday nights. The whole thing. Chris

How it gets to her

  1. You type it on your phone and pick the handwriting, paper and envelope. The price updates as you write.
  2. A real pen writes it on real paper. The preview you approve is exactly what the pen does.
  3. We fold it, seal it in the envelope with her address on the front and yours on the back, stamp it and mail it from Abilene, Texas within two business days.

Half Letter or Full Letter?

A Half Letter (5½ × 8½ in, folded to fit your chosen envelope) is right for a few paragraphs. A Full Letter (8½ × 11 in in a regular envelope) is for the whole story. Choose from the available paper and envelope collections. Shipping is included either way.

Questions

Will she know I didn’t hold the pen?

Only if you tell her, and most people do. The words are yours. We just hold the pen. It is no different from having a friend with nice handwriting copy it out, except the friend is a machine and never reads it twice.

Can I add a photo or a drawing?

Yes. Add a picture in the editor and the pen traces it in outline on the page.

How fast can she have it?

Written and mailed within two business days, then USPS First-Class, usually two to five days. Order early in the week for the end of the week.

What envelope should I pick for a love letter?

Cream linen is the most popular for love letters. White linen if she likes clean things. Kraft if she is the kind who keeps ticket stubs.

Does anyone read it?

One person checks every letter before it is sealed, only to make sure the pen did its job. It is never used as an example and never shown to anyone else.
