I hope the new year has been treating you well. I’ve been keeping busy with book research and running my online bookstore. Last week, I took a morning off to make an appearance on the AntmanVs podcast. It was super fun. Details are at the link!
Bookish Christmas gifts are the best!
Today is the tenth anniversary of my most popular post. As is tradition, I’m re-sharing it here.
I’m officially a bookstore owner! Well, technically, I have been since June when I registered my business and did a few local pop-up events. Somehow, (finally) launching a website makes it seem real-real, you know? We did that on Monday.
Currently, we ship across the US and offer local (Columbus, OH) pick-up. New books are being added every day this week. After that, it will be weekly.
Our selection is hand-picked and often very eclectic. Please check us out the next time you need (or just really, really want) a cool book. And feel free to spread the word to any bookworms you know! Thank you!
I’ve been powering through my research into the life and career of musical theater performer J! A considerable amount of the research is too tedious to share here, which is why I created Alternative Muses. Occasionally I come across something too fun to keep to myself or limit to AM, though, and J’s kindergarten scrapbook is one of those exceptions.
I’ve had this scrapbook since the beginning, but due to its delicate nature was too scared to catalog it…until yesterday!
I shared a few of the pieces over on Alternative Muses, but didn’t want you to miss out on this whimsical little bit of childhood history.
Huge milestone!
Today is a milestone! This is a bigger deal than my first wedding anniversary because book research is trickier than marriage. I’m using today to appreciate all I’ve accomplished instead of focusing on all there is left to do.
I have been busy working on my J biography research. I promise to do a more in-depth update here soon. Until then, you can see what I have been up to by going to Alternative Muses.
