For those of you who love to send and receive happymail, then this particular post is directed at you. Simply register, and your name and details will be added to a (secure) database where people can send you stuff.
Now, it is true that a lot of people don't like giving out their addresses online like that, and one of the many reasons why a lot of writers have Post Office Boxes (thinking of getting one myself) but to be honest, I just don't see anyone joining these websites being malicious. And quite frankly, if someone wants to try and drag me off in the middle of the night they've got to contend with my big-as-a-horse-dog, and THEN they'll have to figure out how to fight me off since I'm a bit on a the chubby side. (I'll just roll riiiiiight over you trouble maker!!!) But for those who don't mind putting their address out there, this just might be the kind of pay-it-forward marvel the world is looking for.
You arn't matched up.
There is nothing obliging you to send anything.
No one is 'checking up' on you.
It's all on YOU to find, or randomly generate a person to send something to.
I like the idea of it being a complete surprise!
I've already packaged up and sent off an envelope to someone there who enjoys smashbooking like me. They are going to LOVE what's inside the envie.
And to make things even more wonderful, a message was left on my profile that someone is sending ME something!!! Just two days after I joined!

| Packed full of goodies to smashbook! |
And now, I must go because I can see my cat is trying to eat the cheese biscuits I just made.
Happy Writing!
