I get compliments on my handwriting all the time so I always hand-write. That way I can draw hearts or smileys when i say something such as I (heart) your movie _______. SASEs are the same. I use colored pens because that's usually what I have around. If I send a questionaire though I tyoe is because I believe it is a little neater that way for answers and whatnot. Also a typed questionaire looks better if you plan to keep it. This is a cool topic!

I write in whatever pen is nearest but I do have a lot of fountain pens so I usually end up writing with one of those! I always handwrite my letters because I enjoy writing more than typing. {thumb2}

I have a couple of styles of stationery I use and always handwrite my letters (I am an engineer, so I write in ALL CAPS-easier to read too I think). Blue/Black ink.

For a bit of personalization, I print up the address labels and put a little clip art image in the corner that relates to the recipient (race car, video camera, book, etc...). I figure its a nice, non stalkerish, touch. I think coloring the envelope or drawing on it is a little much. Then again my artwork looks like a child's...

Do you hand write or type letters? If you hand write do you write in pen or pencil? If you write in pen, what color do you write in?
Or do you have a preference?


Do you hand write the addresses and return addresses on the envelopes or do you type them up?




Like I said, none of this really matters, I was just wondering how everybody else does things. I guess this is also assuming you have good enough hand writing that you can write stuff and be able to read it.

I handwrite my letters and envelopes. I used to type, but I have started writing, and the sucesses are alot better

Yeah, I'm not going to change how I'm doing it, like I said.

I always hand write the letter, usualy in pen but I will write with whatever is closest. And I will use any color ink as long as it is visible.

I used to always hand write the addresses, but I just figured out that you can do addresses on your printer so I think I might start typing the envelopes but still decorate them so that it doesn't just look like a plain typed envelope.

I agree with YOURS_SINCERELY, if you type the letter it can seem like a template that is easily changed.

Actualy I think I did type one letter because it was to someone I really wanted to get and I knew it would be to long if I hand wrote it. But it wasn't like a template, it was a very personalized letter, and I'm hoping I still get a reply from that person.

I prefer to hand write my letterS and envelopes, in my personal opinion I feel that typed letters can be interpreted as generic letters (as they are often in a template style, taking just a couple of minutes to alter).
I tend to use black or blue pen (as its easily visible).

The main thing is: if it works for you, keep doing what your doing!
