I was just curious about how often others right their penpals.

Do you wait for a response then reply and so on? Or do you just write to them whenever you feel like picking up a pen and paper? Or a bit of both?

Bit of both, but having several penpals there often is a letter to reply to by someone. For me it's usually about a letter per week, plus one or two emails or jpays.

Up to three times a day with my mwi...

I write my husband every day, and send him 1 to 2 emails a day. My emails aren't normally long ones, just sharing something briefly that has occurred. I also send him 1-3 videograms per week. He sends me sometimes 2 or 3 letters in a day. Right now, he's working on a lawsuit, so more emails than letters, but letters are 2-3 a week at current. I just got 3 funny videograms from him.

I forgot, my other pen-pal my email turnaround is usually a day or 2. My other pen-pal that we had exchanged letters, was once a week.

Thanks for sharing everyone. It was really interesting to hear other's perspectives!

Turnaround seems to be able a month for me (from sending off my letter and then recieving a response), so I was contemplating using Jpay to speed up the process (though I really am a sucker for written letters).

Yeah this, email is for short messages, if I think of something longer then I send her a letterr. But when you write someon every day then it becomes difficult to think of what to write in a longer letter.
