Monster Joke Month 2016 Snail Mail Project

I can't believe it's this time of year again already and I'm here to announce that I will be hosting Monster Joke Month for its second year this October!

If you're new to the idea, see my original announcement post here from last year. But the general idea is that for every bit of post that you send in the month of October, you put a monster joke on the envelope and then when you send or receive a piece of post with a monster joke on, you use the hashtag #MonsterJokeMonth and/or #MJM2K16 to post it on Instagram/Twitter/Facebook etc. At the end of October I will then do a new post collating my favourite from throughout the month!

It was popular last year, but I'd really like to see loads more people join in this year! Even if you don't normally send snail mail, find a reason to send a friend a post card or write to someone you haven't seen in a while. (You could even sign up to somewhere like IGGPPC and get a pen pal and introduce yourself with a joke!).

As another idea, last year I made Halloween cards and sent them out to my penpals and this year I'm hoping to do something similar, just to more people!

The cheesier the better for your jokes. I've included some pictures of ones I used last year to show how hilariously bad some of them were. I also included bonus jokes on the inside of the cards too, so feel free to put your jokes wherever you prefer!

So get writing and posting between the 1st and the 31st of October and lets have some monsterish fun!

Don't forget to let me know if your are participating and as long as you use one of the hashtags, I should be able to see all your lovely photos.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what people come up with this year!

Monster Joke Month 2015 Snail Mail Project

A few weeks ago I had an idea which I thought was really fun and the more I've thought about it the more I wanted to share it with other people and hopefully for those people to get involved and join in.

My idea is that for the entire month of October, every piece of mail that I send out, whether it's a letter, package or a post card, will have a monster joke on it. I absolutely love Halloween and I thought this would be a really fun way of celebrating it using snail mail and sharing the fun with other people.

For other people to join in, I thought that I would create a hashtag and then every piece of mail you receive/send with a monster joke on, you could post a pic on Twitter or Instagram (or any other form of social media that you use) with the hashtag #MonsterJokeMonth or #MJM2K15

I really hope that people get involved as I am really excited about this and I'm really looking forward to seeing the monster jokes, the cheesier the better!

Please let me know if you're planning on joining me and I'll be watching the hashtags and re-tweeting/re-gramming any and all that I find. I'll also be blogging about the project throughout the month of October and I'll share some of my favourite jokes.
