Folks, it's been a while, and I've tried to do a number of things that I've been wanting to do. I have had to rethink some things. And I've decided to make some big changes, as long as I've made the move to the Intuit website hosting.
First, I made a video tour of the Bookshop. I even uploaded it to youtube. However, in spite of the fact that it uploaded, I can't upload it to my website or even put a link to the youtube url for my video because it's 20 minutes long. Yes, 20 minutes. But I told you it would be raw at first.
I've decided that, rather than just putting something together in order to just have anything, I will just redo it. (It really needs editing, anyway...it's way too amateurish right now.) What will eventually come about will probably be a short video, accompanied by a number of still shots. Or, maybe a narrated slide show will make more sense. Chances are it will change a bit along the way, because I'm doing it. And frankly, I'm just now learning how to put up a website, how to use digital cameras to maximize the look and effect of my website, etc.
Which brings me to the part about the BIG changes I'm having made to my website. I have asked the INTUIT folks to design a storefront for me. I plan to sell used books, obviously, from my own site. Eventually it will include t-shirts, totes, jewelry and such. But my goal is to put my whole inventory on the internet, available to anyone in real time. So whether I sell in the brick and mortar store or from this website, the inventory will be updated in real time.
I covet your prayers to get it right. You might even ask the Lord to make my brain work right so I can understand and learn all that I need to do, yet.
This is all so much fun! Thank you for sharing this with me.
