Questions
- Is it really by hand?
- Yes. Every letter is written with a pen by a person. No robot pens. No printed handwriting fonts.
- Who sees my address?
- Only our mail desk. Your writer gets your first name, your town, and the interests you pick at signup. Never your street. We never sell, rent, or share the list.
- What do I actually receive?
- A printed letter about the town you named, mailed to a US address each month. Not a PDF. Not a drip email, unless you separately opt into a partner newsletter.
- Can I buy this as a gift?
- Yes. You pay $14.99 a month or $140 a year. You enter the recipient first name, what they like, and a mailing address. We never add the recipient or the buyer to a newsletter from a gift order.
- What does “in partnership with” a newsletter mean?
- Hometown Letters is the product on the envelope. A local newsletter such as Brandywine Buzz or Bucks Buzz helps us write the letter and may offer their free email on self-purchases only.
- Do I have to get the email too?
- No. The checkbox is only on self-purchases from a partner page, and you can uncheck it. Gifts never show it.
- When does it come?
- The same week every month. You get an email the day your letter mails, with your writer's name.
- How do I stop?
- Pause or cancel in two clicks from the Stripe customer portal, or write us. No phone call.
- What does it cost?
- $14.99 a month, or $140 a year. The year saves $39.88, about 22%.
- Where do you mail from?
- PO Box 000, Downingtown PA 19335. Placeholder return address. Kyle will set the real mailing address.
