Halloween may not begin in September, but perhaps the dias de los muertos can.
I was browsing mail art calls at crosses.net, as I realized that I had not submitted to any in a long time, but should. It's not that I have any artistic skills. I just like to connect and communicate.
I found one with a mid-October lead time I thought quite interesting.
I am all about sharing the fun. Wouldn't it be fun if a lot of us submitted something to this one?
That reminds me. I am so far behind on getting documentation out on that thing I did last year.
I must remedy that. I'll keep a vigil on that now-dead project until it rises. No more drives to rural north Texas until I get it out.
But now I'm focusing on someone else's call, rather than my own inadequacies:
Join me! Let's submit!
