Every Postcard Tells a Story: Nine Writers Share Their Personal Narratives
I explore how a simple postcard can unlock deep personal histories and unexpected connections. From finding a likeness of a mother I never knew to debating Atlantean technology and political assassination, these brief messages reveal our hidden desires, fears, and the strange ways we navigate loss and memory across time and distance.
I have to say it is terribly satisfying to see horrible people die.

The 711s in Japan let you print color postcards from memory card for ~$1 USD . I would take photos with my camera, go to the copier machine in a 711 (they are everywhere), print the postcards, and sometimes buy the stamps from the cashier. Some stores don't have postcard specific stamps. Just ask for stamps in equivalent value 100 yen.

One of my favorite post card collections is the book "Boring Postcards USA" from the collection of Martin Parr: https://martinparr.com/books/books-edited-by-mp/#gallery/8__...
This book is often out in my living room and rarely fails to start a conversation when friends stop by
