Tale by Mail is a slower form of social media. “The Slowest Stories Ever Told!”
Stories sent out in the mail.
Some are in one image postcards. Others are printed at home in mini zine form.
This started with my constant distraction by digital social media & disconnection from actual conversations with friends & family. I missed actually connecting with people with thoughtful conversations. So, I mailed out a few homemade postcards that apparently got lost in the mail.
Also, I feel like posting art & writing on mass social media sites is a great place to practice your skills & presentation, but in a lot of ways dilutes the appreciation of developed skills in exchange for attempts at attention from strangers.
Sending out illustrated stories to fewer people allows me to focus on developing skills without trying to create quick memes while getting to know the audience through a little feedback and criticism. I simply get distracted when spending time formatting something for the feed & wanted to connect with people in a more personal way.
