We're in a lovely little town in California called Danville. Favorite Story has been online for about 12 years and we opened our brick and mortar in November 2024. We welcome any excuse to turn away from our screens and believe taking a moment just to think, dream, reflect or simply notice the world around us feeds our minds and souls. We try to use our shop to build community and connection through workshops, events and just the day to day, face to face interactions we get to have in a physical, in the real world shop. Being a letter-keeper fits right in with that goal and we're thrilled to be part of the Sunday Letter Project.

USA
Penwick is a newly opened shop in the heart of Sellwood, a small, quaint community within the larger city of Portland, Oregon, USA. Our little nostalgic, romanticized, light-academia-style shop is nestled between several cafes, bakeries, and antique shops. Our hope is to create a gentle space where people can come, sit down, and disconnect from their devices. We want to encourage people to be present, quiet, and feel the beauty in little moments. We are the only greeting card and stationary store in our area, and we’ve received quite a lot of excitement from our local community since we opened on February 14th, 2026. Our customers have shared with us their love for the art of letter writing, and we are so excited to be able to connect them to this Sunday Letter Project initiative!

Birdies: the place to gather
Birdies - The Place to Gather
‘Birdies: the Place to Gather’ is a cozy spot in the heart of downtown where our community comes together. By day, people stop in to read, work, meet friends for breakfast or lunch, or to just relax—often with coffee from our neighbors at Prime Roast Coffee Co.. At night, we host classes, book clubs, and live music, bringing people together in new ways.
Keene is a special town known for its vibrant downtown, strong sense of community, and traditions like the Keene Pumpkin Festival. With beautiful surroundings near Mount Monadnock, it's a place where people truly love to gather.
