Welcome Back
My friend Kiley over on http://www.kupokiley.blogspot.com/ tagged me the other day. I have to say I’m not a big fan of tagging as I hate circular letters and it seems similar, but this one I liked so here’s how it works
Here are the rules
- Link Back to the person who tagged you
- List 7 random book facts about yourself,
- Tag 7 more friends
My 7 Random Book Facts
- I take the dust jackets off hardcover books as I read them, I hate the way they move around and get creased as I read.
- I have to make trial books, to see how binds work, before I make the real thing.
- I love reading but have Irlen’s Syndrome, which is a kind of Dyslexia which makes reading hard work.
- I have to read through a sheet of special orange acetate to keep the letters still on the page, due to the Irlen’s.
- I have kept a diary/journal for almost every day since I was about 12.
- My favorite books are the kind which are full of ideas and inspiration for new projects or techniques, I love to learn.

Unless it’s really really pretty I almost always just throw away dust jackets 😉
(I know I promised to scan some instructions on folding windw stars, sorry for not having done that yet, can’t get the scanner to work, haven’t forgotten though 🙂 )
Hi Liesan
No rush, when ever you get chance is great
Thanks
Billie 😉
A journal of every day – that’s impressive!
I have kept a journal for about the same time, but only write like every 3 months or something.
This tag-version is indeed fun. I’ll think of something 🙂
