I Could Write……..

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

I should be writing about books.. I should be writing about how my book store is doing and how wonderful it all is… I should be… I can’t, because its not… I have not had a sale in weeks .. Most of it is my fault.  I have not put in any extra work into it… I can write how I have gone to yard sales and how I have bought books from customers that I have met sense living here in Lake City.. I can write that I have not written anything interesting in my blog for weeks.. I can write how no one is reading my blog.. I can write about how its hard for me to think of things to write about. I can write how I wish I could figure out how to fix all this… I can write how I wish I had a real bookstore in the real world.. I could write about how I don’t know the first thing about keeping money flowing in my book account.. I could write about all the big idea’s I have for a store.. I could write about not having the finances to have a store and with out that I can’t have one.. I will not borrow money from any thing or anyone.. I could write about all the great idea’s I have for running this store..  I could write about how I don’t read enough different kinds of authors so that I can help my customers.. I could write about how I wish I had the money, knowledge and the place to open this store… I could write about the wonderful husband who backs me in every fool thing I do… He is very surprised I have gotten as far as I have with this on line store…I could write how the past two years have been really fun with my store. I could write about all the work and fun I have had… I could write about all the books I have given to my local library, hospital, CARC, etc… I could write about how I believe in giving back. I could write about how I am thinking about donating books to my Mothers new home at the assisted living . I could write about how new we are there I don’t know what they have in a library. I could write how I entend to find out soon… I could write about how I am getting tired of writing I could write… LOL..  I could write about how we are having company this weekend and I will be off the computer for a few days… I could write how you can find great books new, used, autographed, and signed at www.readerwave.ecrater.com   I could write that this is the end of today’s blog…

Books……..

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Books, there are so many things you can find in them.. You can learn to cook, maybe you want to be like Paula Dean, or Rachel Ray.  Then maybe you want to learn to decorate like Nate, or the design team from Extreme Makeover…Or maybe you want to learn all of it from Martha Stewart..

Books can take you far look at all the books Oprah has had us read over the years…There is so much to find in books… You can learn to read… You can learn your ABC’s and sounds.  Books can teach you games… How to play fair…

There are romance books by authors, Debbie Macomber, Robyn Carr, Joan Johnston, Carlly Philips, and so many more. Mystery and suspense is a good one that everyone loves to read, by authors John Grisham, Brenda Novak, John Finder,Ted Bell, Dan Brown. Then there is fantasy written by Stephen King, Christine Feehan just to name a couple…

Books can be found in lots of places, Big bookstores like Borders, or Barns and Noble, mom and pop stores like Gallery West in Gainsville, Second Edition in Hollywood, Florida these are just two that I know about that sell new and used books. On line stores there are so many you can find the best one that I can tell you about is mine of course www.readerwave.ecrater.com  Then there is www.acread.ecrater.com  there are so many more.. You can find anything you are looking for some where.. You just have to look.. Places you don’t expect to think about looking second hand store, Salvation Army store, grocery store, Walmart is a big seller of books they get allot of the newest paperback on the best seller list..I bought 9 myself this month..

Books can take you lots of places, I have visited Alaska, in romance novels, this is some place I would really like to go some day. I have read of the Racing at Saratoga, I have read of Leaves changing in Vermont, I have read about Presidents and such in books I read in grade school from my school library, Library’s are free you can do so many things there.. whether its your school or public library… Our library has books, on tape, books in large print and just books, there are new hard cover books, there are soft paperback books, Our library even has books for sale that people donate or are taken out of the library for some reason.They even have a place to learn English so there is no reason not to read.My hats off to the person learning a new language. Reading is so much fun… you can read for fun as I do, for the pleasure it brings you… you can read your local newspaper to find out about whats happening in your town and areas around you as my husband does… Just Read….

Second writing one place you can find books I did not mention. Some people sell at Flee Markets, it might be with the other things they are selling they set out a few books they have read. Or Like I do I have whole boxes of just books that is what I offer for sale at the Flee Market.. When I go back in November will be offering new and used… Have been taking apart my book room here at home as right now I am doing better at Flee Market than on line… Yard Sales are another great way to get rid of and buy books… Here locally we go on Friday and Saturdays… When Flee Market is open I go on Fridays so I miss some great sales on Saturdays… Have been to some great ones while its closed

Good Romance story has made the world go round for years… I have been reading romance novels sense Gram gave me @2.00 a week to spend for my allowance and we had a store at school.. I would go spend some of it on a pocket size romance novel. Then it would take me two days to read..Then I was back to the school library.  I was in middle school at that time.. From then on  I aalways had a book in my hand. A girlfriends gram gave her true story a very smutty mag.. we read them from front to back when I was a in 8th  grade.. The point of my blog is to tell you read anything just read… But understand and don’t skip over the hard words or make your own words.. Make sure you are reading what it really says and means… You can do this even with Romance…..When my children were little we had a lady who lived across the street from us who got her Harlequinin the mail every month.. she was nice enough to pass them around to several of us to read. I would read mag from front to back…To this day I read one or two books a week depending on how busy I am. I just bought 4 books from  Wal Mart as we don’t have a book store in our town… But even in our town you can find a book at the nearest Publix Grocery Store, WalMart, then used one you can find at the library sale, yard sales, flee market… There is a always a way.. Just read

I have loved reading so much that in 2004 I started an on line bookstore www.readerwave.ecrater.com  back then it was on eBay but got to expensive now I can offer low affordable prices and still make a profit… come see my store
