Once upon a summer's day, a peahen visited my home.
I fed her blueberries.
And so was the beginning of the Postcard Club.

My name is Mackenzie, and I am one-half of the duo behind Penelope's Peahen Postcard Club. The other being Penelope herself, of course.

Last summer, a real-life peahen visited my home in Georgia, where she happily roamed all day scavenging for food. In the afternoon, I took her a bowl of blueberries. She ate them in front of me and enjoyed them so much that she asked for seconds.

Where Penelope came from remains a mystery, but it was a magical experience that I will never forget. And luckily, after speaking to Penelope for a few minutes that day (it was difficult at first to decipher her wing flaps and squawks), we decided to create a postcard club together to recount her travels to any who might be interested.

Every day, Penelope embarks on a new adventure to locations across the world. She relays her travels to me, and in turn, I write down and illustrate one of her many adventures for our subscribers each month (aka, Peahen Pals). Her whimsical, fanciful tales serve as glances into the possibilities and serendipities that are available to each of us every single day.

Penelope and I invite you to join us in our snail mail endeavors, as we both believe in the power of receiving physical letters in your mailbox. As a Peahen Pal, you can not only look forward to a bright blue envelope with the official Postcard Club seal each month...you can also look forward to a world of imagination and a guaranteed smile.

Warmly,

Mackenzie and Penelope
