Maypole

The stuff you would never post,
sent to the people who actually care.

Maypole is a private newsletter for your real life. Write about the house hunt, the health scare, the side quest, the honest version of things. It lands in the inboxes of the people you choose. Nobody else. No feed, no algorithm, no randoes.

Start your letter

How it works

1. Start your letter. Name it, pick a rhythm: weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. Invite your people with a link. They confirm once, no accounts, no apps.

2. Get nudged, never guilted. A few days before each issue is due, we email you writing prompts, including follow-ups on things you mentioned last time. Answer one, ignore the rest. It is your letter.

3. They read, they write back. Every issue lands by email. Readers reply privately by hitting reply, or comment for the whole list. Just because they read yours does not mean you read theirs.

Want everyone to write? Make it a circle.

A circle is a letter with multiple writers. Each edition, everyone gets the same prompts, answers them, and Maypole compiles one shared letter for the whole group. Perfect for families spread across time zones, old friend groups, and teams.
