I've always kept my brushes laying flat in a closed drawer & like you I only clean them with monomer. My brushes last a year or more, so like Holly said, don't hang them or leave them out in the open to collect dust & debris. For acrylics I use red sable brushes with a wooden handle & I write the date on the handle when I first start using them. Then as time gets closer to a year from that date, I order another brush. Works for me!
