Happy Birthday to Me! at By mail!

This is a quick-and-dirty ultra short term mail art call.About 2 weeks ago, my husband passed away.  About 2 weeks from now is my birthday.  It is also a decade birthday (I will be 60) so it was important to me, and now I will be spending it alone. I don't want to spend the day sitting around feeling sorry for myself, but I need your help to do it. Please send mail, especially mail related to birthdays and / or to the number 60, or on the topic of new beginnings. No restrictions on size,…See More

Loss and finding myself

On October 10, my beautiful husband passed away.  He had been chronically ill for a long time and frankly, he was ready.  He told me he wasn't afraid, and he would welcome it.  He is at peace, but me?  I am a basket case.  I'm gutted.  Nothing feels real.What is important for IUOMA purposes is, I have spent the last several months taking care of him, and now, well, I have almost nothing to do.  Lots of free time.  I am hoping to pick up making mailart again.  While I am grieving, I feel…See More

Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
I read about it in Whole Earth (wow, they don't even publish any more!) Used to get Global Mail Art and Factsheet 5, then used some online lists. These days it's Node Pajomo and Xerography Debt. Interested in exchanging art and zines and maybe even letters. I do post addresses, shout outs, and mailart calls in my zine unless asked not to.

How do you pay for life?

Posted on October 22, 2023 at 8:10pm 8 Comments

This is a legit question for the community.

Either I work and don't have time or energy to make art, or I don't work and don't have money for postage.  I have 3 issues of my zine on my computer that I can't afford to print or mail.  I'm in school right now, so not working.

Do you all have jobs?  What kind of jobs?  Or are you professional artists?  Postage and art supplies costs you money too, so where are you getting it?

Kiss5Tigers post cards

Posted on August 2, 2018 at 6:51am 1 Comment

I found some post cards from a photography project a few years ago.  The contact information on them is still good so I was trying to decide what to do with them.  Then I remembered that I have a huge mailing list from IUOMA that I never manage to reach out to.  So you may get a post card from me.  Feel free to send mail art, hit me up on facebook or read my blog.  I welcome the interaction.

Allison, to update your address, if you look at the top of the page, there's 'My Page' in the menu. click on that, it'll take you to your personal page. Scroll down a little and there will be a section called 'Profile Information'. To the right of that, there is a little grey 'edit' box. Click on that and you can edit your address details.
