Received two lovely postcard from Cherub Ayers (Oxford, OH) in July: The first postcard features sea life (the postage stamp matches perfectly). I love the texture and 3D elements. Cherub used decoupage, watercolor, ink, label and sealant to make the card.

Mail from November 2018: November came a knockin' and my mailbox was a rockin' with a rather hefty envelope from John M. Bennett. In his note to me John mentioned, "Some reading matter for you enclosed - for yr [sic] edification or puzzlement (which are perhaps the same thing)." When I reviewed the generous offerings I conceded that JMB hit the nail on the head! If you've been around the m-a block long enough, you know that John M. Bennett is an experimental text, sound and visual poet. He has published a great deal of his work (and the works of like-minded writers / artists) through his small press, LUNA BISONTE PRODS. I am pleased to have received a sampling of these publications. I haven't had a lot of exposure to experimental language, so I will make a point to delve into this packet of material. Another great resource I plan to make use of is John M. Bennett's website! Thanks so much for you generous mail, JMB!
Mail from November 2018: How great to receive mail from C. Mehrl Bennett! I love the original artwork from Catherine - especially the mini book, "Ask a Cow." Weeks before I had given her a few brown kraft pages from a discarded braille book. I'm glad to see it put to use, and thrilled that I am the recipient! The braille paper was also used for a "Not Fluxus" flashcard post card.
Thanks so much, TIP! Love me some gnomes!!
