If you cross Europe and come through Amsterdam, let me know. We will be moving house in a few weeks and I had surgery making me stay at home so I think it is time to pick up the postcard thing again. I hope I did not fall off the list yet. New address per the first of June: Brederode 9 1187DN Amstelveen The Netherlands, Europe, Earth As an aside, sorry to have been absent and I will sort through what I received and send all you guys something in return. From the top of my head: Genesplicer, Lamb, 13Pandora13, Julet Esqu but there will be more.

If you never want to hear again, please let me know. In a hand written note, using a real stamp because we love foreign stamps at our house.

Hi guys, after the move my daughters moved in with us and now I have 4 kids in my house. This means I have just about time for eat and sleep and that is it. Look, I didn't even open all the goonmail I got:  You''ll all receive something in return, this might take a while. Delayed but not forgotten!

Thanks to all you who send me stuff over the last few months: Lamb, Shenanigansluck, 13Pandora13, Julet Esqe, Team Lunch and Aunt Buck. Some of you will receive this:  It is stationery made from obsolete topographical maps. These are from somewhere in Germany and I found an online store that can sell me a variety pack. Any map freaks?

Hey Team Lunch, I got your card and we had some trouble believing you really colored that yourself! Amazing work! You got a robocop coming up. The best things about these requests is that I so very often have trouble thinking of what to draw that now I can work on this for the weekend. You helped me out a ton. If you (or anyone else) enjoys drawing things and sending and receiving other people's drawings, head to the Art-Card exchange here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3868956

Team Lunch! Your card came in about two weeks (maybe three) ago and it was on my desk, waiting for a moment of time that I could set aside for opening it and giving it the attention it deserves. The drawing you put in is amazing, I love the coloring. It reminds me of a great story and gives me something to write about. It is added to my Goon Art Gallery that is the wall of my study (as soon as I buy frames, currently it is a drawer in my study but it is added the same). The card is a piece of work, I am glad you bought it and send it to me so I could experience something like it in the wild.  Keetron fucked around with this message at 19:54 on Jul 14, 2019 |

Mail came from 13Pandora13 and shrimpwhiskers, thank you both for the cards! Now I have three goons that I need to reply to. However, every time I go into my study, I am followed by my kids who want to know what I am doing and if they can watch a video on my computer... Dad? Dad? Dad? Dad? Dad? DAAAAAAAD?

So yeah, I was unpacking some boxes that were packed since the move a few years ago and I found a ton of unopened goonmail, going back to at least 2014. When I get over my shame I will open it and post here. Let me know if you'd still like a reply and if the address is still correct.

Took me almost a month, but I got over myself and now in the process of opening and posting 5 year old mail. Possibly 2013, 2014 or 2015, Lamb send me a valentine's fart pillow and other goodies. I hid this one for years before opening it now, as it turns out my wife did not like me getting valentine's mail from random internet strangers.   In November 2014, Khamul send me a wonderful letter and a cool photo of an not-exploding airship.  In December 2014, Team Lunch send me a super cheesy card and some nice goodies.  In December 2014, Shenanigansluck, send me the most glittery Christmascard I ever seen. It has so much glitter, it should count as a crime against humanity yet here we are. The picture does not do it proper honors.  In December 2014, Brotato send me a christmas greetings and included a chick, because a chick always checks out!  In Februari 2015, The Genesplicers send me a calendar for 2015 and some Las Vegas playing cards. Considering the calendar was late AND the letter was opened in 2019, I would say this is a win in terms of inaccurate calendars. In another 7 years it will be 2026 and I can use it. Should have kept the envelop sealed...  Got a happy Spring card from Julet Esqu, also in 2015. It could have been 2014, but I think 2015. In June 2015, we moved house and I have no more mail on this old address as the new owner of my old house was not really forwarding mail at all and the postal agencies do not forward unless the name matches so no mail to Keetron should have made it. 2015 was a hard year, I should have opened this one earlier as well.   Oh my god, I got a happy birthdaycard from Julet Esqu in August 2016. I had a good birthday, turned 39 that year and things were going kind of ok, I am sorry for not thanking you earlier. My kids love the tattoos!  Then in December 2016, Shenanigansluck send me a glitter orgy christmascard. I will color the penguin and return it to you. (update: I failed so bad that you will get something better)   Now we move to a more recent set of mail, the amazing Jezus one I already posted but these two I did not. 13Pandora13 send me woodmail, I am in the process of answering.  ShrimpWhiskers send me WOW! which immediately gave me flashbacks to my time as a World of Warcraft junkie. Also something went wrong with the address or postalcode? The local postal services solved it and the mail ended up at my place properly so we all win.  I am now sending out simple replies to everyone above, the more recent ones get more elaborate replies as I can be sure it will arrive. The amount of glitter on my desk makes it seem like a group of unicorns took turns on Tinkerbell and she loved it. The key takeaway from this effort is: do not let loose ends lie. Either tie them up or burn them off. Keetron fucked around with this message at 18:58 on Nov 24, 2019 |

I send some letters this week and I wanted to say to the recipients: I am doing well, just when my thoughts run off they tend to run to dark places. I am the type of person who loves Autumn, music in minor key, gloomy stuff and dim lights. I cannot pretend to be cheerful when writing  I can understand not everyone is up for that but on the other hand, if you are, my address is in the list :-) When writing, just be yourself, the world has enough veneer as it is.

Sorting through my mail, I have received and will be returning this week to 13Pandora13, Shrimpwhiskers and Team Lunch. One problem: I am not sure who drew this:  because I have a painting of two foxes I would like to return to you. The others will also get some stuff from the pile, no worries!

Pershing posted:Keetron, did you ever get my stuff? I've never mailed internationally before. I don't frequent the forums that much and try to respond to all mail I get but have seen a huge delay in that the past few months. I was just picking it up again. Over the last few weeks I received postcards from 13Pandora13, Team Lunch, Schrimpwhiskers and Zoesdare (Thank you all, you amazing people). Beware tho that international mail, especially between Europa and the US currently can be severely delayed. I have you address noted down so even if nothing ever arrives (it happens), I can still mail you! 13Pandora13 posted:Thank you for the decade+ of penpalling, Goons. It's been an honor. You can email me at pandora (dot) campbell (at) gmail (dot) com. Saved the sheet as well, but in general I tend to use the return address on the letter/card I receive as I am too lazy to open the sheet at times.

As this week is my birthday, I send all goons on the list a birthday card. It made sense to me at the time. The contestant for "weirdest goonmail ever received" is Pershing, who send me a book about Alaska. Before shipping any other tomes to Europe, please give it to a Goodwill and go take your SO out for dinner on that money. Hell, expensive! Thank you for the mail tho, it was the biggest surprise of 2020!

I have received a lot of mail and I *will* reply to at least one this weekend, also planning to go for the complete list again for christmas, using fancy schmancy italian paper thank you cards or something I bought a decade ago and never used. Reason for all the delay is a move from one small study to a larger one and half my stuff is lost while the other half is "in the other room". It does not matter which room I am, the stuff I need is in the other. The hardships of having rooms to spare after some kids move out. Anyway, my thanks go out to: Zoesdare, my wife wants to send you more hugs. Hold on tight! 13Pandora13, thank you for the halloween card and sticker! Poo in an alleyway send me an envelope I still need to open, it is super cool to receive mail from the weirdest island in the EU (how long will that last?). Lamb send me more halloween mail, super cool! Team Lunch send me halloween mail as well, I now have so many stickers and they will all go on my new sketchbook that I start in a few days. In these weird times we are lucky to have each other, I am really grateful. Thank you Goons!
