Inklings are LWA member currency. You earn inklings; there is no way to buy them. We are a community, so when you support the community, you get an inkling as a way to show our gratitude. The list of items you can redeem your inklings for are to the left, below the inkling photo.
Ways you earn inklings:
• Attending an LWA sponsored Letter Social
• Hosting a Letter Social
• Completing LWA mailing tasks
• Doing unique/interesting things to promote mail/letter writing
• Doing unique/interesting things to support the Post Office
• Visiting the LWA booth at craft fairs
You can redeem inklings for items. Please view the left column for redeemable inkling items. To redeem your inkling item, simply mail-in your inklings to the LWA P.O. Box (below).
NOTE: Writing X amount of letters in a day/week/month is not a way to earn inklings. We assume you are writing letters if you are an LWA member.
If you have any questions on how to earn inklings, want to redeem your inklings, or if you have done something you think is inkling-worthy, please write us a letter and include your member number:
