After a long struggle with electronic devices, The Hand-Written Letter has peacefully passed into obscurity. From the earliest Egyptian hieroglyphics, to the hastily scrawled note in pencil, from parchment and quill to paper and ball-point pen, The Hand-Written Letter led the way in written correspondence, bringing together the writer and the reader in a way that emails never could.
Let us remember how we chose the paper, how we picked and filled a favourite pen and then witnessed the wonderful marriage of paper and ink as the blank page filled with living words, until finally, in that last, intimate moment, it is placed in an envelope and sealed with saliva, and in that momentβs parting kiss you send something of yourself.
