TeapotPoet

Hello! I'm Ilana, a twenty-something living in California (USA). I'm glad to meet you!

My top hobby is reading books (especially poetry, fantasy, adventure, and kids' fiction)! I also enjoy creative writing of my own. I also like listening to music (jazz, video game and movie scores, Disney/Pixar), watching TV (currently loving DuckTales and LEGO Elves), playing piano, drinking tea, visiting museums and the seaside, going for walks, eating cheese, admiring fine notebooks, and petting friendly dogs. I'd love to take up swing dancing again someday. Write to me in English or Spanish, or even teach me something in your language.

I'm grateful for whatever you'd like to write. If, however, you're having trouble with the message, here are a few suggestions:
- Describe something you see every day.
- Tell me something that once surprised you.
- Name a scent that reminds you of something else.
- Write me a poem or some microfiction.
- Copy a poem that you like (with the poet's name, of course).
- Teach me something you learned recently.
- Describe the place where you're writing right now.
- Tell me a story that was embarrassing when it happened but has become funny now that time has passed.
- Tell me about an inside joke.
- Tell me about something you enjoyed studying or would like to study.

I'd love to get any picture you think is interesting or cool. For bonus points, here's my postcard wish-list:
- books, libraries, literature
- teacups or teapots
- old buildings / architecture like churches, cottages, and castles
- illustrations, watercolor, cartoons, and other art
- flowers, fruit, vegetables
- landscapes like forests and mountains
- water scenes like oceans, rivers, lakes, and waterfalls
- puns or quotations
- maps
- food
- birds (especially hummingbirds) as well as dogs, cats, and other animals
- anything charming, peaceful, colorful, cheerful, funny, or cute

Thank you!

Going postal,

Ilana
