Summary
Dear Pennies & Pallers,
Our first letter is from our pal Major Tom, who is dealing with trauma in his marriage (content warning, this first letter addresses physical abuse). Letter two comes from a Day-1 Paller named Jane who wants to know if we are attracted to anything quirky.
We also sing karaoke, talk casting calls, and more!
We wish you well, sincerely,
Your Pen Pals Daniel Van Kirk & Rory Scovel
