At The Rumpus, we love a good letter, and Tanya Houghton wants you to send her mother postcards.
Three years ago Marianne Houghton was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. Once an avid traveler, her deteriorating health has left her without an outlet for her wanderlust.
In response, her daughter has started the “I Wish You Were Here Project,” a website dedicated to collecting postcards addressed to Marianne from around the world.
If you want to send Marianne a postcard, go here.

Our home base is Asheville, NC and Hurricane Helene severely impacted our ability to host events, launch new initiatives, and caused other significant financial setbacks this fall.
Can you support us at any level by Dec. 31? Every dollar counts and is a sign that our readers collectively value creative labor and independent publishing.
Once a week, we'll send you a roundup of what's new on the magazine, invites to upcoming events, open calls for submissions, and more!
