Nancy Bell Scott commented on David Stafford's blog post Saving the US Postal System

"YES, definitely important enough to repeat. (Besides, you don't repeat.) I repeat, definitely important enough to repeat. Kat, re: your last question below: I can hardly breathe for the waiting."

Nancy Bell Scott commented on Toni Hanner -- tonipoet's blog post Finley Union's Big Batch o' Mail Art

"The handwriting looks very similar to Burmese. I love it. Lyrical, purposeful, and calm all at once. "

Nancy Bell Scott commented on Alan Brignull's blog post Anyone else feel like this?

Nancy Bell Scott commented on Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)'s blog post Mail Art Omens from David Stafford

"Are these the first Oriental and bunny mail arts anyone has ever received from Dave? (Far as I know or think.) But since he tends to throw anything/everything in there over the years in his completely original way, I'm probably wrong, and happy…"

I'll send you a collage as soon as my isolation is a little less.

I was there, too, but opted out of a table. I still talk with Robert Saunders weekly, another Maine reference, hahaha. Be well and stay healthy

At 7:20am on March 4, 2020, Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) said…: So happy to know that the "mountains/islands" have arrived, Nancy.

"Feed the World Art" as Erni always says :-)

At 9:02pm on December 21, 2019, Mail Art Martha said…: Nancy, do not worry about big gap in mailing, reality issues always get in the way of good intentions. Here also this year and the two precedent have been confusing and 2020 does not seem to be panning any better.

I am looking forward to your mail, Walmarth is having a sale in Spring and it would be an honour to have a Nancy Bell ScottTrashpo piece on show.

By the way I did put a comment for you in the Dkult group but it seems to have disappeared. May be I forgot to save. It can happen.

I am having a good long break until January so Happy New Year, see you the other side.

Friends, I wish I could blog everything like in the old days, but being at least half-luddite (and getting worse, haha) prevents it, as well as having the slowest + most infuriating scanner…
