Art and personal post, two of my favourite things. What is not to love?! I would love to be involved in whatever way it unfolds! Will DM my address xx

I'm not at all sure anything "arty" I do is going to be worth the paper it's on, but I'm happy to have a go occasionally!

You might also be interested to kook at Postcrossing, https://www.postcrossing.com/. It's a different way of writing to random people by snail mail. xxx

Oh, and beware mailing outside the UK. Even a postcard, anywhere in the world outside the UK, will cost £2.50 in postage! Ouch!

Such a fun idea! I am moving but will circle back once settled. It would be fun to exchange art with people anywhere.

It’s a brilliant idea. I was immediately YES, ME, EXCITEMENT! Then the brain weasels started.

This is such a great idea! The Squam Love community that I’m in did something similar and it was a pleasure to receive cards in the mail, decorated with bits of washi tape and hand-lettering…art but not Art. I’ll send you my address.

Love this! And I'd love to do mail art. Being completely a Substackophobe, I have no idea how to DM you my address but if you let me know how, I will!

i would love to partake! i write actual snail mail to folks...birthday cards, bereavement, notes etc. i just started writing monthly notes to my six-year old grand-nephew because i wanted him to experience the pleasure of receiving his own mail. not sure what my "art" will be. will try to avoid macaroni and glitter...especially since i'm in the states--haha. will DM address. :)
