About Dana...

I am a librarian with interests in photography (http://picasaweb.google.com/WeirdDana), travel, and cats (wild and domestic). I've recently moved from Washington State to Arizona, leaving behind my volunteer positions at the Wild Felid Advocacy Center (http://www.wildfelids.org) and the local farmers' market (http://www.tumwaterfarmersmarket.org/ -- I used to write their newsletter). Mostly I'm just unpacking these days, and waiting for my house in Lacey, Washington, to be sold (I think I have a buyer!) so I can buy a house in Bisbee, Arizona. In the meantime I sit around reading escapist fiction, trying to write same, and sometimes reviewing it (http://weirddana.blogspot.com/).

I like postcards that in some way reflect the area they come from, especially ones with your own photography or artwork on them (automatically representative of your area since they were created there). Even a nice ad- or free-card is fine if you make a special effort to tell me something interesting on it. I slightly prefer natural rather than urban scenes, single images rather than multi-views, and don't care greatly for "cute" cards, but I only mention this in case you can't decide what you want to send. If what you want to tell me fits better on one of those cards, go ahead and send it, because...

My favorite part of a postcard is the message on the back. Please tell me all about whatever you care about or enjoy most. And don't worry if your English is less than perfect -- it's probably better than I could do in your language!

I speak English and Spanish, but I can also (usually) decipher Portuguese, Italian, and German, so feel free to write in one of those if you prefer -- then I'll get a puzzle as well as a postcard! Or you can teach me a word or phrase in another language, I collect those too.
