A Letter From A Stranger


It should be obvious that the Domestic Sluts love letter-writing, so Call Me Balthazar's letter project was always going to get our ink pens flowing. Send Balthazar (self-styled 'imaginary sailor, pretend photographer') your address, suggest a topic or opt for rambling nonsense, pay him $5 and patiently wait for your letter. He'll also pop a polaroid in too. Younglings: this might be retro now, but this is like an 80s flashback to me.

There is something so intimate about a letter that my first instinct on receiving it was to curl up somewhere quiet to read it. My fabulous letter covered cats, narwhals and, somehow, the amygdala. Balthazar is such a brilliant letter writer - effortlessly charming and chatty but not over-familiar - that you'll be inspired to write your own. Treat yourself to some fancy stationery, dig out your best pen and write a rambling missive to your mum, dad, best friend, or significant other (even if you live with them). It says "I'm thinking of you, you awesome creature" in a way no email or text message ever could.
