About Dear Mr. Postman

Well, first of all, the postman is a very dear man. He brings things right to your door, and picks up other things, and delivers them for you. This is handy for presents and cookies and bills and postcards and wishes of love and Hallmark cards (or other-brand cards of your choosing) and letters.

Oh, yes! Letters:

Dear Mr. Postman is a series of open letters– to politicians, celebrities, institutions, your mother, inanimate objects, and anything else that needs talking to.

Google provides the following definitions of open letters:

  • A letter of protest; addressed to one person but intended for the general public. (Princeton Wordnet)
  • An open letter is a letter that is intended to be read by a wide audience, or a letter intended for an individual, but that is nonetheless widely distributed intentionally. (Wikipedia: Open Letter)
  • Open Letter is the third album from R&B singer Case. It features “Missing You”, which was his only number one hit to date. (Wikipedia: Case album)

Just a girl trying to over-communicate with the rest of the world.

Yours,

MM
