    Hello, hello! I just got your card in the mail, or I got it a little while ago, I'm behind on my correspondence. Things are going pretty well here, just trying to type a lot of stuff this month. The goal is 50,000 words. No way I'm going to get there but I'll get enough to get another zine out of it. Oh, I've been making a lot of mail-art especially larger pieces. How are you doing?

  • Neil Gordon

    Melt the guns!  Thanks for the link.

  • Rebecca Guyver

    Susan, you were on my colour of mail art mailing.  I was confused if I had already sent you one but decided I hadn't so sent one about two weeks ago.  Anyway, it was returned today with you address missing!  I will repost.  I didn't send it to you before, did I?

  • Robin Ryder

    trash is my friend, trash is my friend.....

  • Keith S. Chambers

    Kind of an accidental series at that. Started with one, thought I'd make it go in some direction from there. It was more about experimenting with some techniques that were more or less too complicated to get consistent results. Which, stupidly, makes me want to play with the process a little more and see what else I can do with it.   :p

  • Cascadia Artpost

    Hi Susan,

    Thanks for the "Let the matter crawl around the wall" postcard. Wasn't XPF a fun event for all? I hope to make a trip to San Francisco in the fall to meet up again with the XPF mafiosa and attend one of the meetings of the S.F. Correspondence Co-op - event been to one of those? You are on the Cascadia Artpost mailing list, and I will have some mail art to you outgoing on Monday.

    ~ Jack @ Cascadia Artpost

  • Neil Gordon

    You Rock!!!

    Yes, let's eat some pie. Thanks Susan :)))

  • Keith S. Chambers

    Please don't push strangers in front of trains . . . why does that make me laugh? Oddly, this card was mis-delivered to my neighbor . . . I can only imagine that she did not find it so amusing, oh well :) She did tape it over to my side of the fence [our way of fixing such matters] thus righting the wrong of my mail carrier [I always know when my regular carrier has her day off — mis-delivery in the mailboxes is a theme with the stand-in carrier; good thing I know my neighbors and am in good standing with them].

    Regardless, I dig the work. Thank you.

  • Keith S. Chambers

    Oh, I don't know that you upset her, I just don't think she's the type of person to see the humor in such things . . .
