KEEP WRITING no 16
March 2010

This month’s collaborator was @kyle_bravo_ , who taught me a little about screen printing but maybe not enough (check out the super sloppy text on the back). He designed and printed most of the front, I added the bubbles.
The front of a postcard, portrait orientation. The background is white. There is a window with blue bubbles going through it, from a light blue to a dark navy. The window is a light cream. Under the frame are the words "Create a situation for yourself" in all caps. The front of the postcard along with a shot of the back. Text on back: O I still love you, letterpress. This is Keep Writing #16 March 1010. A screen printing collaboration with: Kyle Bravo or Hot Iron Press. Subscribe -> $9 for 6 monthly postcards. Write: P.O. Box 16360 Baton Rouge, LA 70893. Or, if you are lazy: www. etsy.gutwrench.com. Also hotironpress.com to tell Kyle he's swell. A close up on the handwritten text.

Still true.

Today is fueled by coffee and butter on crackers. And a little bit of a green vegetable.

KEEP WRITING no. 3
sent January 2009

photo copied hand lettering glued onto brightly colored paper and adorned with handcarved stamps.

Another true story.
a yellow postcard with stamps of pie, a mug, and a fuel gauge across the top. a story is written on a white piece of paper attached to it: "FUEL. Once, a visitor to my home told me 'Food is Fuel' which is why he only eats raw foods. I was alternating fork fulls of sweetened-condensed-milk-pie and sips of whiskey ~ fuel for a different kind of engine. Lately, I'm more of a tea & green veggie powered machine. Oh, and daily spoonfuls of the caramel my roommate left when she moved out. When that runs out, I may start eating from the sugar bowl again. This is KEEP WRITING no. 3 Jan 09, PO Box 16360 Baton Rouge LA 70893." the postcard from the first image is visible, with an orange one beside it, showing the back of the postcard. there is a papaya on a stamp and the artist's P.O. box.

Too many people helped to thank them all—this was all set up in 2 days and removed the following day.
