Here is a general question for all mail artists: Have you thought about what to do with your mailart archive?
Of course, some mailartists don't save it - some like to recycle it in m.a. they send out again, or it gets pitched. Or they scan it, blog it, and pitch it. Or...?

Hello Helga,

You can archive a number of ways, only left to your imagination.  I, personally, have a folder on my computer called 'Outbound 2013'.  Within that folder I have a word document called 'Log' which I document outbound with date, recipient and name of piece.  I scan work and give it a name.  I have another folder called 'Unsent' and another folder called 'Sent'.  I move images from 'unsent' to 'sent' as I add them to the log and put them in the mailbox.

How do you keep records?  Do you keep a log book?  What do you keep as documentation of the pieces you send out?  Are your pieces numbered?
