The Story Unfolds

More than a letter. An experience.
Every envelope is packed with pieces that bring the story to life — documents, sketches, and ephemera from another era.
Handwritten Letters
Two pages of story on premium ivory paper, printed in period-style handwriting. Tommy's on cream. Ellie's on white.
Identity Cards & Documents
Military service records, factory passes, ration book pages, and personal documents from the era.
Telegrams & Newspaper Clippings
War Office telegrams, local newspaper cuttings, and official notices that weave into the story.
Sketches, Maps & Ephemera
Hand-illustrated character drawings, pencil sketches, pressed flowers, and hand-drawn maps of places in the story.

Here's what our early readers had to say about The Letters Home.
"I bought this for my mum for her birthday. She rings me every time a new letter arrives — she's completely hooked on Tommy and Ellie's story."
"The extras are what make it special. The identity card, the telegram, the little sketches — it feels like you're opening a real wartime letter."
"In a world of screens, having something physical arrive through the letterbox every two weeks is such a joy. I make a cup of tea and savour every page."
The story behind the stories
Posted Stories started with a simple idea: what if stories could arrive through your letterbox instead of on a screen?
I've always loved the magic of real post — the anticipation when you see an envelope on the mat, the way a handwritten letter feels different to an email. I wanted to create that feeling for other people.
Every letter is printed on premium ivory paper, packed with hand-illustrated extras, and posted in a handwritten kraft envelope. It's designed to feel like something you'd treasure, not throw away.
