I haven’t posted here in a while because of time constraints but also because what free time I have managed to squeeze out of a day (like blood from a stone, it seems!) has been put toward a new project.
While I plan on implementing Brett’s idea of making Biblio real online before I can do the bricks and mortar version, I had another idea as well. Perhaps the two will be melded one day, perhaps not.
Anyway, one late night, or early morning, I can’t remember, I created Bella’s Bookshelves. Bella is short for Isabelle, which some of you may know is my middle name. Steph’s Bookshelves just didn’t have the same ring.
I hope to update it more or less regularly, and I really hope it will force me to prioritize my reading, not only because I want to get back to reading as I used to but also, even mainly, in preparation for when I am the proud proprietress of Biblio. The place occupies my mind now constantly, and a notebook I started on it in 2007 is back out and being scribbled in, along with a copy of Become a Bookstore Owner, complete with CD. It’s a FabJob Guide, no less. And who doesn’t want a fab job? I have to say I was thrilled they chose this as one of their topics!
If you have a favourite bookshop or have a personal library you want to send a photo of, I’ll gladly post it!
Congratulations on your new project (I just came back from checking it out, and I really like it!) – you’re on the way, and there’ll be no stopping you.
Thanks, Brett! Somehow it doesn’t surprise me you’re first to encourage me here!
I can’t help it! You’re destined for success (heck, we all are!) and I’ll be jumping up and down as you go
You know what? Ditto. I feel the same way about when your business takes off. I know how much you want this and how hard you’ve worked. I cannot wait to see that beautiful theme loaded! Keep me posted.
