out

Hi there. I have sold out of this batch of booklets. The good news is I'm getting more on November 21st or 22nd (sometime around then). I'm going with a different printer this time, someone local and very friendly and helpful. I have found that this is crucially important - the last printer did an incredible job, they look great, but I really had a hard time with their customer service. There was just no communication at all.

If you have already placed an order through paypal, I have a booklet for you. I didn't take any orders for booklets I didn't have.

Some folks have asked why I'm not taking orders in the meantime. I have considered this, but have decided that I need the booklets in my hands before I can feel comfortable actually selling them. That way, if something goes wrong at the printer, or whatever, I don't have to scramble to let people know they're coming late.

I'm new at this, and I'm learning! Self-publishing been really fun and incredibly educational.

What I've learned, and can pass on to you:

* it really helps to actually meet your printer. Talk to him or her, and look around the shop.

* order more copies than you think you'll sell. Even if they sit around forever, it's not like they'll expire or anything!

* get organized. Have a system for everything - image storage, orders, etc. It will save you a lot of time in the long run.

I'll provide more as I learn more.
