are your letters usually long or short? Or does it depend on the length of your pal's letter? Do you write when he/she writes or whenever you feel like it?

My letters to Donni are usually about 18 pages, but I babble on and on - just like I do here, and her's are shortish (4 pages) these days as she is 'in class' from 8am - 10pm (reuniting with society and more rehab classes)

The others depend. They are sometimes longish (7 pages) and sometimes shortish (no less than three pages) - sometimes depends on what they wrote, but more often depends on what's happening in my life at the time.

18 PAGES LONG WOW!!!!!! I SEND MY PP AT LEAST 5 PAGES AND I WRITE HIM LIKE 3 TIMES A WEEK ....

My letters are anywhere from 4-7 pages...they take awhile to write! I can never write an entire letter in one night. It is usually over the course of a few days. His to me have been 3 to 6 pages.

18-pages, that would take me for ages!!!!
I ususally write, no type, 3-4 pages. Last letter to Huggel were 10 pages, and it took me nearly a day to make it up. Thinking how to word it, reword it, ...
A normal letter of 3-5 pages takes about 3-4 hours. (OK, I have to admit, I always peak on the forum in between)

I do not know, but I do not understand how it come that it takes such a long time. (I am a fast typer).

It don't know why it takes me so long to finish his letters. I guess I take breaks in between......sometimes I work and go right to school at night so I'm too tired to write the whole thing.

I write anywhere from 1 page to 10 sometimes more, just depends what i have to say and how much time i have to write, i never let my letters sit for more than a day unless there is no mail cause i like to get them right back on the way. My pals usually send long letters too, I am actually in competition now with one, we write one page more than the other one write so first 2 pages then he 3 me 4 he 5 me 6 and so on.... we are to 9 So i gotta send out a 10 pager or i lose hahaha

My letters are usually over 8 pages long. I sometimes worry that they become really boring. I tend to write about what I am doing, where i've been etc. So far there have been no complaints....lol

Anywhere from two to four pages, at the moment--my pals and I are still in the question-answer & share small, unrelated details stage, so it does depend a lot on how long theirs are. Simply because if they ask less, I have less to reply to--I'm certainly not trying to exact "revenge" or anything on them by writing less if they do, lol.

One of them usually gets five pages, though, because I send him a poem or a short story printed out on a piece of stationary. I'd like to send him a book of poems (Frost), but I've been lazy about looking up the facility's rules on sending in books. Shame on me.

geez i must be boring!! my longest letter was 4 pages but they are usually 2 or three. I usually wait till i get a letter to write but over the hols i havent waited have been sending letters at least once a week

I don't actually worry over the length of the letter, I answer or respond to whatever was in their letter that I received and I tell them whatever I have to say, personal comments, etc. It is what it is. Sometimes a couple of pages, sometimes more. I can definitely say that my typed letters tend to be longer than handwritten ones.
