For 17 years I ran a nonprofit musical theater program for children—a place where kids could express themselves without fear of criticism, discover their strengths, and grow through encouragement, deep practice, and ensemble work. Along the way I brought my experience with me, and I also learned a lot from the hundreds of children who were a part of the program.I believe there's magic in compassion and understanding. Having someone in your corner who helps guide you in the right direction, is often all you need. I love being the person that helps you see your own strength and gently keeps you on course.Now I'm using my experience for something new: Penelope’s Post, a monthly story for your child and an encouraging guide for parents. who want to nurture their child’s unique light.

When do I get my letter?

I send out Penelope Anne goes out on the 15th and Penelope Parsons goes out on the 1st & 15th of every month.US members typically receive their envelope within 3–8 days after mailing.International members should allow 2–6 weeks for delivery (mail can take a little longer across borders).Part of the beauty of snail mail is the slow pace and anticipation.

What if I need to cancel or change my address?

Just email me at [email protected] and I’ll take care of it.
Please try to let me know before the 1st of the month so I can update your address or cancel your subscription before the next mailing goes out.

What if I didn’t get my letter?

If your envelope doesn’t arrive, email me at [email protected] and I’ll make it right—either by resending your letter or refunding you for that month.Sometimes envelopes are returned to me. I wait until the end of the month to allow time for any returns, then resend them to you. I’ll also contact USPS on your behalf if a letter goes missing. And if all else fails, you’ll receive a refund for that month.

💌 A note on timing:

If you sign up before the 1st of the month, you’ll receive that month’s letter. If you sign up after the 1st, your first letter will arrive the following month.
