What I just finished reading....

Have you read "Half the Sky"? Not an easy read, but a must. Violence against women is so unbelieveably prevelant and yet so undiscussed. Doesn't matter what country your in, no one wants to talk about it or hear about it. Breaks my heart. Half the Sky does talk about it, but also offers up options of what each of us can do to get involved...

Take a few minutes and read it, see what you think, and see what you can do.

January 2012

So I recently bought another book, yes another book..."how to see your crafts online", it focuses on Etsy but also other media. I have to say it has some good suggestions, including keeping up with your blog, which I am horrible at. But who has time, I barely have time to wake up in the morning, much less keep up with facebook, twitter, my website, blog, stores, and as if I even have time to make anything....that's out the door. I am going to write my own book, "How to have time to make your crafts"....that would be a best seller!!! That is for sure!! So I think I am about to add an "Etsy" button to my blog, we will see if this increases traffic, or just more busy traffic for me.....

As for 2012, bring it on, it is going to be a great year, and let me tell you day 1 was fabulous, the Bay Area, the sun, good food and lots of fun....2012 is going to be great!!!

Don't forget to check out my "Etsy" button. :)
