small steps

I dropped my books at a bookstore on Orcas Island. She didn’t want to buy them but offered to take them on consignment and so did the resort where I’m staying. So far none have sold at the resort and I don’t know if any have sold at the bookstore. I am pretty sure that all of them haven’t sold because she hasn’t gotten a hold of me to order more. I really hope this isn’t a sign that they aren’t good books. I thought that they would fly off the shelves. Maybe I priced them too high. Maybe they aren’t as great as I thought. Maybe I should stop being a pessimist. (excuse me while I change out of my grumpy pants!)...I’m sure that she’ll be calling soon to order more! (that's better!) J 

This afternoon I’m going back to the first bookstore I left my books to see if she’s interested in purchasing them. I’m hopeful that she’ll want to but feel a bit less panicked because now I know I can offer her the option of having them on consignment. The more places they are the better, even if no one has paid me for them yet! At least it's a step in the right direction, a small step but a step!
