The writing prompts invite postcrossers to write about a different topic on their postcards’ messages every month. These are just suggestions though — if you already know what you want to write about, or the recipient gives you some pointers, that’s great too!
This month’s writing prompt is a fun one! Though I confess it’s a bit of a headscratcher for me, though I did come up with an answer! So if you’re stuck for what to write on your postcards this month, how about this?
I don’t watch a lot of media, even animated media, and while I know cartoon characters I watched when I was a kid, I don’t particularly want to meet Road Runner or Wile E. Coyote, however hilarious they are. That said, as I was musing this one my eyes lit upon a manga I’ve been loving lately, and I remembered that it’s been made into an anime… So that definitely counts, right?
So I’d love to meet the main hero of A Gentle Nobleman’s Vacation Recommendation, Lizel! He’s a nobleman from a fantasy world who ends up travelling accidentally to a different fantasy world, which he treats as a chance to have a fun holiday, making friends and exploring the world… and going to any bookshop he sees! He’s even more of a reader than I am, racing through books at speed, though I think we have similar acquisition tendencies (more books is always better!).
I think I could have a great time hanging out with Lizel: we’d go to a bookshop, grab a whole stack each, and find somewhere comfy to devour and discuss them. Not that I need the excuse: I’d do that anyway!
So now I’ve come up with something, perhaps it’s your turn! Is there a cartoon character you’d love to hang out with? You can share in the comments here, or use it as a prompt when the postcards you send are feeling a little too blank, if you like!

This is a tough one, but if I had to choose, I would choose Betty Boop, because she seems like so much fun! :)
I imagine myself having fun with Mafalda hd her accid sense of humour.
I think I’d hang out in the pink house with Caroline. Maybe she’d give me a tour of the tunnel to “the other mom”?
My favorite cartoon has always been dragon ball and I would love to meet one of the historical characters writers too
I think the Hundred Acre Woods gang would be a fun hang -- Winnie the Pooh, Kanga, Roo, Tigger, Owl, and who could forget Piglet or Eeyore!
And I would love to chat with Nanny Ogg, a character from Terry Pratchett's books. Even though she is a book character, there is a cartoon based on one of the books in this series. So, I believe my choice fits the task. I would try to pick up from her her bright vibe of enjoying life at any age and under any circumstances. It would also be very useful to chat with her about all sorts of everyday things, in which she is highly, highly knowledgeable)))
I’d love to hang out with Wander from Wander Over Yonder. Maybe camping?
As you can tell from my username, my favourite cartoon is *The Simpsons*, and Bart is the character I identify with most (a prankster, a bit of a rebel, a non-conformist, a bit of a joker...)...
I’d like to hang out with SUNFLOWER (above commenter) with the lovable characters in THE HUNDRED ACRE WOODS!
I think I would like to hang out with Snow White and her friends, the 7 dwarfs. She sounds like such a sweet, gentle soul, and the dwarfs are really cute and funny.
For me it would be Tintin, the Belgian reporter
Garfield the cat ❤️ a fond memory from my childhood.
Tinker Bell. 💕 She was always magic to me. Beautiful nature, flowers, tea and so many happy friends.
If we talk about cartoons I will say maybe Zuko from Avatar the last airbender ... I don't watch a lot of cartoons
If we talk about anime for me will be Hao from Shaman king... but you can see him from my profile picture as well he is inside my username... and if you read my profile you will have a sense of knowing...
I would love to hang out with Snoopy and the Peanuts gang, play a little baseball, meet the neighborhood kids and Snoopy's family. I might even give Lucy a piece of my mind! She can be a real twit! Fun day!
I would love to meet Mafalda, Garfield and Calvin & Hobbes 😊
I watch a lot of cartoons… I’d say any of the crystal gems from Steven universe!!
Hands down, Snoopy is my favorite! I would love to spend time with him as well as his friend Woodstock. Both of them rock!
CASPER THE FRIENDLY GHOST 💯
Without hesitation, Tintin for a new adventure in China or the Balkans.
I like the dry humour (?) of Lucille in Peanuts. I maybe indentify a little bit with her so perhaps the communication between we two would be too acid? But on the other hand, we could have a lot of fun, if she is also capable to self irony - is she?
For me: Mainzelmännchen

I would like to hang around with Howl from Howl's moving castle or with Dr. Snuggles. When I'm sleepless at night, sleeping on Totoros big belly would be nice.

Marge and/or Lisa Simpson, Linus (well, any of the Peanuts gang) and Felix the Cat. But there are soooo many!
