"Hi Pam! You should be getting one any day now--if it hasn't already arrived. I'm glad you stuck around, too. You fade away now and again (LIFE happens), but you always come back. Hooray! Hooray! Hooray! Cheers!"

Profile Information

Mail-Artist since:: Late 1980s-early 2000s....briefly out of "retirement", but returning to it.

My Website (without http://):: http://linktr.ee/Monster_A_GoGo

Why I am involved in Mail-Art:: Mail Art happened organically for me in the 80s. I always wrote letters back then (long before the advent of email and texting). Eventually I started decorating my envelopes. Why not? My envelopes got more and more elaborate. Once they started getting really interesting, one of my friends, who was a part of the Mail Art scene, introduced me to the community at large. I was very active for years. Then real life hit, as is often the case, and Mail Art sort of took a back seat...and slowly drifted from my mind. I am happy to discover it is still a vibrant art form and am more than thrilled to jump back in again.

My Mail-Adress (snail and/or E-mail): Monster A GoGo -- RETIRED Mail Artist (Lurking in the background...)
Sorry--I'm NOT accepting mail at this time. PLEASE do NOT ask others for my address. I appreciate the effort, but NO THANK YOU. My mail box is closed.

Hey--Although I am not 100% sure (I don't see it listed anywhere on my page.), based on the earliest posting of anything I can find for me, TODAY (3/15/2023) is apparently my 1st anniversary here on IUOMA. I'd really like to thank everyone I've had contact with on here for making my return to mail art (I was originally active from mid-1980s-early…

Mail Art 20: Answering the Mail Call!

Posted on March 15, 2023 at 6:00am 2 Comments 2 Likes

Hi there. I wasn't planning on another blog post chuck full o' my envelopes quite so soon, but Coco Muchmore had that quasi-urgent call for help (Asking people to send in mail art for a class she is presenting in early April) and Maxima Strange has her new goth project up and running. I HAD to help. So, I busted my butt and cranked these out.…

I know I only recently added a new post about my mail art, but I'm b-a-c-k with a new one already (thanks to lots o' time on my hands due to the need to get ready for --and then recover from--a colonoscopy. O' the glamour of it all! But--in addition to my new envelopes, there is a HUGE cache of some vistage stuff of mine from the late 1980s-early…

Mail Art 18: Backlogged and Behind Once Again--and MEETING an IUOMA Member!

Posted on March 1, 2023 at 4:30am 14 Comments 6 Likes

Hi there. I'm b-a-c-k from my extended stay in California---and have been overwhelmed with mail art chores since my return. Phew! But, once home, I jumped right back in. The break did nothing for me. My mail art is...the same tired stuff. Oh well.

A hightlight on my trip south was the meeting up with another real life IUOMA-er!…

Mail Art 16--The Quasi-Holiday Edition

Ho! Ho! Ho!

I'm back with a recent sampling of my latest pieces. YES, I am retired from mail art at large, my mail box is closed, my address removed, etc. But that doesn't mean I don't still enjoy doing it for family, friends, and the few contacts in the mail art world I have kept. I try to keep it all one-sided. While appreciated, I do NOT…
