Hi Nancy,

Yes, art is the message most can understand.

I love you Nancy, you are so funny! I can't wait to see what you sent me.  I hope your postman doesn't stay mad at you. He's earning $20 plus an hour afterall. They earn every penny. I would do that job if I wasn't so afraid of dogs and people.

Yes Nancy!! Where would I be without you? I used all of the trash I had on my pages for Cheryl's book. I hadn't really planned to make trashpo but that is how it turned out. I put a piece on my blog in your honor based on our conversation about how draining some people can be. Also, the last page in Cheryl's book uses something you sent me. I hope you're not mad that I tore it out of the notepad!!! Ack--no shopping lists written yet:)

Thats the beauty of true asemic writing, the emotions of the writer are in it. On wiki i read an article about a chinese artist who wrote thousands of pages full of chinese calligraphy but all the words were meaningless, the viewers should have felt the idea and emtions behind the work. Most people are reigned by their minds, it is too scary to see with the heart and intuition. Yeah, my spiritual hobbyhorse, but you'll forgive me.

Hi nancy,

Yeah i use a checkered board because i really try to come up with a new kind of alfabeth, my asemic really has meaning. I think i have to figure out a way of writing it together, like i learned at school with the first writing. 

I also have a thing for table of signs and images, like the Phaistos disc or Rosetta stone like image. Looking at that keeps the cretaive juices flowing.

I went through only a couple of the 390029992883763666563555535553 pictures you displayed.  I was unable to "see me" there, but you made my day anyway.  :-))))

Sorry, Nancy, but the "Blue Moon" was the card I sent AFTER you didn't receive the olive pits ;-( So, perhaps it is lost-in-the-mail...or, may turn up one day! The "Blue Moon" is for my "365"...me thinks for today, August 23! 'Glad you liked it.

Hey hey there! I don't have my list in front of me but I don't think (right off hand) that I've sent you anything. I am going to work on a few things later on tonight and I will add you to my "to be mailed" pile. Hope you're doing well and see you in the mail.

Nancy, received the fabulous trashbook of yours today!! It isn't really like trash though because it is vintage and dreamy and charming. Love the unexpected pages you interspersed with the vintage pages like the xeroxed hand, window envelope and stamped envelope. The safety pin binding is just great. who would have thought? Also the glassine envelope will definately be making an appearance in another trash book.You will be pleased to know that I found a fabulous handwritten note today so the trashpile might be starting to pile up again. Thank you so much for this but I don't think I can bring myself to write on any of it!

Well, I have plans to expand it to 4 " X 4", but the closet is packed full of other stuff. The trash is carefully filed away in a zipoloc bag (gallon size though not sandwich)
