<p>Billy, generally I'd suggest you find people here whose work you have an affinity with and mail them something. There are a lot of great book artists in Cheryl's and Samuel's groups.</p>
<p></p>
<p>People are at IUOMA because they are open to exchanging work and building networks. Jump in. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Also watch for various mail-art calls in Events. Some of them are specifically for book exhibits or they'll include your books if it fits the project.</p>

<p>Don't worry about what you perceive to be your own level of talent.

<p>Thanks for the information, I'll check it out. I should also say that I would be excited to trade some of my books for mail-art in general. While I am very interested in trading books, I would just like to get involved in some art exchanges in general.</p>

<p>Hi Nadine - I would say that I am more passionate about making books than skilled - I can't seem to follow a simple stitch if it has to be repeated... I try to make books that don't require thread. But that is what I love about making books, by making them and exploring the different ways to do it, it really makes you think about what a book is or can be. </p>

<p>Samuel Montalvetti in Argentina has an artist's book group:</p>
<p><a href="http://iuoma-network.ning.com/group/libro">http://iuoma-network.ning.com/group/libro</a></p>
<p></p>
<p>I agree with Nadine. Even though Cheryl Penn's group says collaborative books, that's the place where you'll find most of the people doing artist's books. In mail-art, artist's books tend to be collaborative - it probably comes from the add-and-pass concept.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Good luck</p>

<p>Looks like you already know about Cheryl Penn. A terrific book maker. I do books, not very skilled or serious. more on the strange side of life. </p>
