Do You Still Write Letters?

Every now and then I will sit down and write a letter to a friend that I have not seen in a while. I actually sit down with paper and pen and write.
To me it seems a more personal way of keeping in touch. Texting, emailing, and such have their purposes but I think every now and then it is nice to receive a letter that has been handwritten and sent through snail mail, so to speak.
I love to receive a handwritten letter every now and then. Yo me it is a sign that someone actually took the time to sit down and actually write a letter.
Do you write letters anymore or are you taking the quicker way of being in touch?

I don't write letters now. Just the short way it is done these days! It's good to know you still write letters.

I literally couldn't tell you how many decades it's been since I actually put pen to paper to write a letter.

I hardly ever wrote letters. Most I do is write little messages in cards for birthdays, and christmas.

My handwriting has gotten really bad due to always being on the PC. I write notes for myself but I know the no one would be able to read anything I write by hand. This Christmas I had to write to people who did not have PCs so I wrote the letters online, printed them and put them into the cards.

I would love to have someone to write to but I would type the letters as my hand-writing has really gone to the back.

I do I have a pen pal in prison, but wait, he is not in there for really bad stuff, he is mentally retarded and flashes people. He broke probation, flashing, and they sent him to prison 
, instead of a mental facility. I write him weekly, I am due to send a letter now.

Yes, I do. It is a more personal touch and shows you care.
