Traditionally Handcrafted
Each letter is created using traditional art mediums such as pencil and paint. With attention to detail in mind, the process can take a few weeks from the very beginning stages of a letter to the completed stage with finished artwork and handwriting. Each letter you receive is a custom work of art.
Who is the face behind the letters?
Greetings! I'm Nicole, a mom of three boys who I homeschooled for several years, and the sole person behind WFTW! That's right, it's a one-woman show here. From customer service to social media management, to fulfilling orders, to the artwork and writing the letters - it's all me. I'm a real person behind the screen, not a bot.
This small business journey has allowed me to stay home with my children while providing for them. I still do a happy dance when someone subscribes! I hope everyone enjoys these letters just as much as I enjoy creating them! If you'd like to learn more, see the About section.

My child looks forward to their mail every month!!!! The beautiful art on the paper, the awesome information about each animal. We will be ordering our yearly subscriptionfor years to come!!
My great grandson, Trey, is on his third year of receiving his Writings and he is still enjoying them very much. For me, they make birthday gifts easy and his mom likes that he is getting an experience instead of a toy. Win win!
Absolutely love our subscription..... all 3 of my kids get so excited to open their mail. It's bright, it's beautiful & it so engaging!
We love our monthly letter. My girls look forward to it each month and try to guess what animal will arrive.
My grandson loves Writings from the Wild. We highly recommend this high quality, unique resource to connect us to nature and wildlife. It's AMAZING.
My son and I LOVE LOVE LOVE writings from the wild. We make ourselves a nice cup of tea, cuddle up in bed and read the letter and then try to draw the animal!! It's a steal for 10.00 a month and it brings us ao much joy!!
We have had a subscription as well as gifted issues/subscriptions to friends and family for a few years now.
It started with me reading the letters to my children and now, they read them to me. Sometimes interest is so high, so fascinating, it impresses a full on research project.
The art is also incredible and has improved over the years. I never have to worry about accuracy of maps or the structure of the animals and plants. Everything is so well done, so well vetted, which is a blessing for me as a homeschooler and homeschool educator.
If I was to want more, I might want an educators subscription. Which might include an extra resource page with the letter. That would include QR codes to worksheets, how to draw instructions/videos, possible lesson plans, videos, and other resources like possible field trips, reading lists, etc. Not necessarily created by your company, but things the creator researched to create the letters themselves.
Something else that would be incredible, from an educator perspective would be, how to draft a letter, or a video from the creator. Like a short bio video to inspire young writers and future scientists, artists, and entrepreneurs. Knowing these ideas were generated by a real person is very impactful to students, in a time when AI is beginning to dominate imagery.
Thank you so much for all you do. We love Writings from the Wild and look forward to many more letters in the future.
