Letters Now Sent, Volume 1 is a moving collection of real, heartfelt letters written by and to individuals who have lived cross-culturally. Inspired by Ruth E. Van Reken’s seminal Letters Never Sent, this volume opens a window into the emotional landscapes of identity, belonging, and transition.
Compiled by lifelong letter-writer and Third Culture Kid (TCK) Consultant Megan C. Norton-Newbanks, Letters Now Sent is more than a book—it’s a cultural archive. With deep gratitude for the contributors who entrusted their words to this project, Megan offers a unique collection— a living record of shared identity and experience. These signed, purposeful letters capture the complexity of navigating multiple worlds. They carry apology, affirmation, grief, celebration, disappointment, gratitude—and above all, love.
