Hey #NaNoWriMo participants, I'm not planning to write a novel, but I am practicing my #bookbinding skills. Once you're done writing your novels, would any of you like a printed, bound copy of your book? I'll work for free since I'm still learning, if you pay for materials (and shipping.)

Notafraidofwords This is so nice of you. 😄 7y
becausetrains @Notafraidofwords thanks. 😊 I've been thinking of starting an Etsy store, and this is good practice (and a way to tell if I can make a go of it!) 7y
