Geek Girl Pen Pals
Where geeks and snail mail collide
Founded in March 2013, the International Geek Girl Pen Pals Club (aka IGGPPC) was designed to bring together the geek community through shared interests in all things geeky, a love of stationery, and an interest in making friends.
The IGGPPC is a mixture of a love of snail mail and letter writing, geekery and fangirling, some curlie-wurlies, a dollop of mischievous curiosity, and a splash of tomfoolery.
Please support us on Patreon, as all proceeds go straight into our hosting costs and continuing to spread the good news about the positive place we’ve grown to love known as the IGGPPC

Hallowiggles 2020: Poison Plant Garden
