Okay all, ceasing transmissions on this channel tonight!

When I finally agreed to write this book for the future parents of the world, I had no idea of the journey it would take me on! But because I said I would, its the nature (and upbringing!) of this beast to do as I said I would do.

What I hadn't anticipated when my students asked me to write all this 'stuff' down, was that the marketing of the message was a whole new ball game and by far the most stressful and time consuming part of the journey!

Fortunately life has taught me more than once, that the way to 'eat an elephant' is one bite at a time.
Many many bites later, there is not much of that elephant left and the remainder can be nibbled away quite comfortably with no indigestion!

Very timely, as new adventures are calling.

Many many thanks to those who have shared this journey with me, for your private messages of support and encouragement and to those who took the risk and purchased a book. I am still amazed when I get feedback from my outlets, that people return to tell them how much they enjoyed reading it!

Big loves,
Marg

Easter greetings to you and yours.
Just swinging by with an update before ceasing transmissions.
All outlets now reported in!
Wisteria Cafe & Gifts in Ross sold 5 (and we just dropped in for a cuppa on the way back home and impulsively asked Kevin and Kathy whether they would be prepared to take some on consignment!!)

Also two new outlets :
Deloraine: Art Mania (quite a range of goods with a focus on Tasmanian made products)
Hobart: Tasmanian Market. Brooke St Pier (near Mona ferry departure) Again Tassie products with an online shop, so interested to see how that goes. Fingers crossed as it will save me heaps of time and energy if I only have to focus on restocking!!

Also, edging closer to accomplishing goal of recovering costs, in fact I can say with confidence that I will accomplish that mission. A great feeling! So close to job being done!

Thank you again for helping with that goal!

Fun ways to make shadows!

And then Wattlebird (gorgeous little gift shop in Evandale) another two. New outlets: On Hampton Creative (well worth a look!) sold three! Dymocks and Landsdowne Cres Cafe sold 1. Few more to check!

Don't you just LOVE it when you ring around your outlets and find another 12 books have sold! Hobart outlets are chugging along nicely and the very quaint little Tricycle Bar and Cafe in Salamanca Place had sold two! Gotta be happy with that!

Thanks for your orders! All my outlets are present and correct so I can confidently report 307 books sold. Just need to do the ring around for any who need a re-stock and will soon cease transmission on this channel and just have the outlets and web-site available to move the remaining books. Timely for a Winter break!
Thanks again for your support!
