New Tier for Prospective Pen Pals!

So, two things.

###

First, I just launched a new tier! It's a fun concept I've been mulling around in my mind for a while now... I would love nothing more than to get to know some of you lovelies in a way that is... tangible. Something you can hold in your hands. As a fairly anachronistic person myself, and as a person who loves the ancient art of writing words with my hands...

Pen pals. Ah, what a lovely concept. So here's how it would go. Once you sign up to that tier you'll get my email address (if you don't have it already). Feel free to ramble on in an email, ask whatever you'd like, make any suggestions, feel free to make requests, etc. We can jump on Discord to text back and forth, because a little back-and-forth might help me to get to know you a little better (I'm a decent judge of character, and you lovelies have always been a very chill bunch, which I appreciate immensely.)

And then, about a week later, I'll send out your envelope. I found the A6 style envelopes that I am in love with (this cool craft paper vibe, like, postcard/invitation sized, you know?). They're non-descript (if necessary), and there's something about that size. You can stuff a LOT inside, which is what I would like to do.

What kind of stuffings? Well, about as stuffed as I am into these bras I can't fit into anymore, wakka wakka wakka! (Yes, Brananza 2: Electric Boobaloo is on the horizon -- that site will be launched next week! But you Patreon Lovelies can drop me a line if you'd like first dibs! [Electricity was through the roof this last couple of months, so mama wouldn't mind the extra cash in exchange for one of her lovingly-used over-the-shoulder-boulder-holders].)

Oh, yeah. So, hand-written/hand-typed notes of response; stickers; photos (yes, I'll likely be sending those kinds-ish of photos, keepin' it cute and flirty, as is my fashion); clippings, trimmings, digital and terrestrial... think... Tucking a micro SD card into a mini "zine" kind of thing; a spritz of my signature scent; a piece of artwork created by me (or the girls?)... I just want to jam-pack these things with as much as they'll hold, and get a big ol' kick out of doing it.

Creativity, it has been said, rests in the limitations. And I have long loved the notion of seeing what I can pack into a small-ish space. I hope you will too. Because then, you get a fat envelope delivered to your door that you get to unpack and get a big ol' kick out of perusing it.

And I really want to stick with the personal theme. Like, getting to know someone and thinking, "hey, they'd really like this, that'll be part of it." So it's kinda like a mini, custom care package in that regard.

I'm going to start out limiting myself to only 15 of these little packages being available per month. That's like one every two days, and I can pull that off with the appropriate care. :-) I just don't want to get back on that horse of overpromising and under-delivering. So, as the old saying goes, quantities, for now, are limited.

In the end, it's just a delightfully fun way of getting to know each other, and is a cool little branch of the whole Heather Empire. :-P

So if you're interested, head to the new tier, "The Heather Beck Monthly Mailer" here on the Patreon! It's $125 per month, shipping included to wherever you might be, which is a good chunk of change... But that'll cover materials, costs of things to go in there, and really, the time it takes to create something limited, personalized, and rare. (Like moi, [albeit la Miss Piggy].) I want to really make each of these into its own piece of art that persists long after it arrives.

You can just do one if you'd like, and see how it feels, and then downgrade your subscription, I won't take it personally, and you can always pick it back up later. It's one of those "in this economy?!" kinda things, but offense won't be perceived if you want to get flexy with it. Or, just keep it going, and we do the pen pal thing, buckaroo!

###

Let's see, there was something else...

Oh yeah! These pics are of me rocking the ol' Double Bra. J cups, but with 56-inch bands for MAXIMUM SISTER SIZING. (Good God, my bra situation is a catastrophe these days... more to come on that...) It's handy for those days when I can't smush into the counter and need a little bit of a lift... But it does cause the headlights to shine high into the heavens!

XOXO,

It won’t let me dm you ):

This is a really good idea. I used to to write old fashioned letters to a woman who had traveled to New York bum around and find her writer's mind. Also, have you read the "Griffin & Sabine Trilogy" The first book is "Griffin & Sabine, an Extraordinary Correspondence". It's like a scrapbook of letters and postcards between the two characters, complete with envelopes attached to the page to pull the letter out of. I've been in love with those books for my entire adult life. Anyway, I absolutely love the idea, and I'm hoping to have the funds to join that tier somewhat soon. October 9th was my birthday, and that could be a nice gift to myself.

I love this idea! Such a fun way to interact, connect and honor each other. I can't wait til i can make that happen!

Mookie Johnson

That is a very thoughtful comment, and I thank you for it.

Heather Beck

It’s an excellent idea Heather. Pricey but could be a winner. Anything to encourage a two way flow of conversation, ideas, opinions etc. Limiting it is a good thing both for you (capacity) and us (this is something special). Good luck
