FAQ

When will my order ship?

Most Six-Penny Stamp orders ship within a few business days. If an item has a different processing time, you’ll find that information on the product page.

The Prose & Post Society follows its own monthly mailing schedule. Current-month editions begin mailing around the 15th.

When will my first Prose & Post Society envelope arrive?

Join The Prose & Post Society by the 25th to receive that month’s edition. Orders placed after the 25th begin with the following month.

Current-month editions begin mailing around the 15th, so depending on when you join, your first envelope may already be on its way or may ship shortly afterward.

Hoping to start with the current edition after the cutoff? Drop me a note. If I can make it happen, I will.

Where do you ship?

The Prose & Post Society ships throughout the U.S. and to many countries around the world. International subscriptions are sent as First-Class letter mail, and delivery times vary by destination. Most international envelopes arrive within 2–4 weeks, though customs and local postal services can occasionally cause delays.

If you don’t see your country as an option at checkout, drop me a note at jennifer@sixpennystamp.com. I’m always happy to consider adding new destinations.

What is your return policy?

Because many Six-Penny Stamp items are made or prepared especially for your order, I’m not able to accept returns or exchanges unless an item arrives damaged or incorrect.

If there’s a problem with your order, please get in touch at jennifer@sixpennystamp.com with your name and order number. If an item arrived damaged or incorrect, please include a photo, too. I always want to make it right.

What if my order doesn’t arrive?

If a tracked package is marked delivered but you can’t find it, please check with your local post office first. They can often help locate a package using the tracking number in your shipping notification.

The Prose & Post Society travels as regular letter mail and does not include tracking. If your envelope seems to have gone missing along the way, please email me at jennifer@sixpennystamp.com. If USPS loses it, I’ll send a replacement.

I’m looking for a great gift. What do you suggest?

Or visit The Gift Shop at Six-Penny Stamp for literary gifts, paper goods, art, and curious things for readers and other interesting people.

Why Mail Matters

Because opening the mailbox should feel like opening a window to a beautiful view.

In a world of scrolls and screens, The Prose & Post Society offers a moment of tactile joy. A slow dance in a fast-scrolling world. An analog nudge to pause, to take a breath.

Each quote is chosen with care—words meant to anchor you, inspire you, or simply keep you company.

My hope is that you’ll find yourself memorizing these lines over time—so that in a quiet (or chaotic) moment, a beautiful sentence resurfaces.

How It Works

1. Subscribe by the end of the month. (Pause or cancel anytime.)

2. Open your mail and enjoy. Frame the prints, use them as a bookmark, or pass them on as a gift.

3. Look forward to the next one.
Every month brings a new design, a new quote, and fresh surprises.
