#mailed it

@dimplesandfierceeyes truly nailing my gifted requests!! The curtains open!! There are tiny envelopes!!!!! You picked the most devastating quotes from BBS that keep me up at night!!!!!!

And then @suml3unny gave me this absolutely adorable (!!!) Peaceful Property treat that’s as sweet as Home’s pancakes (too soon?) absolutely fantastic pic selection and placement 😉

Thank you both so so much — I am absolutely obsessed and I truly did not realize how much joy it would bring me to receive these (an insane amount) 💖

It's going to be less organised as the original event, we're drawing our mail recipient through drawnames.co.uk - there you can also add in your own wishlist of fandoms and characters.

The proposed deadline for sending your postcard is the 31st of August.

Thank you Alex for the ask and for giving me an excuse to talk about my beloved Mel. 💜

Mel started off as an OC I wrote for a fanfic several years ago. Eventually I decided to give her an original story, called Mailed It. It started as a novel (which, unsurprisingly, I never finished writing), but I think her story might be more fun as a comic!

No mail? No problem. Just ask for Melinda, soon-to-be delivery knight. She'll fight monsters, inclement weather, and her own bad luck to deliver the post on time — it's all in a day's work.

Mailed It is supposed to be a cross between Barbie and the Witcher 3, if you'll believe it 🤣

Mel's story definitely leans more towards comedy. She is not a super serious character, and often gets into scrapes and shenanigans.

She's my go-to character when I play RPG games and I need to create a player character. I've drawn her a lot in my playthrough of Elden Ring (which I've dubbed Melden Ring).

She and her love interest, Aidan, are both ace!

Her birthday is 5th September.

I also often use drawings of her as my profile picture on social media.

Anyway, I love her.

I took part in @mailed-it this spring, and received these two amazing postcards from @lolacouldnotcareless and @stillnotincheckmate 🤩❤️

Absolutely made my day, there is so much effort put into both of them, and I will treasure them!
