Getting Ready

I've spent a goodly part of the morning setting up the mailing list.  And blowing my nose.  We had a nice few days back in the low 70's here, but last night the humidity kicked in again, and I reluctantly turned the AC back on.  Which gives me the snotties in the morning.  Now we have a lovely rainstorm...

I put my name and addy in my new books and am thinking about how to start them.  I've decided that getting a somewhat complete stranger's blank fresh book and having to be the first to "break it in" is intimidating!  It's hard enough for ME to break in a new book of my own!  My theme is "Tell Me About YOU".  Since the books will be travelling the world, I couldn't think of a better theme.  Hopefully, pages will be filled, and the participants won't feel compelled to just do one page.  I'd like them to be filled, nay, jam-freaking-packed with little drawings, words, anything!  I'm also including a letter of introduction of sorts that will hopefully be passed on from hand to hand.  I have a fresh new black fancy-pants pen, and have been sharpening my pencils. 

Beginning mailout date is September 1st.  Annnnnnd then we'll be off!
