Seriously.

I cannot believe I didn't try this sooner. Even though [livejournal.com profile] earthenwood was such a dear and gave me several nudges in that direction, I just kept putting it off.

I've sold three of my higher-end crafted pieces in the last month. *blinks* Generally, I only sell one every other show.

And my lower end products (not crafted)--well, I've sold nine in the last three weeks.

I'm totally geeked. And it even coincides with one of my crafting phases! Now to put some lower-end crafted pieces on there after my next two shows are done...

Oh, hooray! I was wondering how Etsy was working out for you.

And hooray for crafting phases! \o/

I am really loving Etsy. *huggles the Etsy* People actually ask complete questions and they use punctuation.

*shakes head in disbelief*

AMAZING.

Hey, you haven't tried emailing me anything in the last 20 minutes or so, have you? I'm having some bizarre problem with Yahoo mail right now--it won't let me read my email, but I'm logged in and still getting email alerts...ARRRGHH.

Hmm...nope, I think I emailed you something yesterday, but that was it.

Yahoo! clearly wants you to acknowledge that you love them and only them before you can read other peoples' words...

This makes me very happy indeed! YAY!

Now if I could only get something listed in my shop again...sigh.

*hugs you very much*

I am dancing around the apartment. You've seen my apartment--you know how difficult that is. But I'm dancing, nonetheless.

Etsy rocks! And I owe it all to you!

I'm working on the Flickr stuff--I've joined a few groups, and we'll see what happens. *crosses fingers*

Haven't looked into the street teams yet. eee! Always so much to see and do...

Etsy is evil... EVIL!

Seriously, I just can't look at it. Five minutes and I've found five things I HAVE to have. I can't afford to even glance at Etsy.

I know that if I ever go on Etsy and use "squid" as a search term I will be financially ruined within the half hour.

I really am overwhelmed by the response to the high-end items--I never thought any of them would sell. I can't wait to see what happens when I put smaller, cheaper things up!

And thank you so much for the compliment!! Squee!!

I purchased wonderful soaps from cherished ones who have an Etsy shop... If I ever finish that painting of mine, I think I might list it there, perhaps...

What is your shop name, most beloved?

I will email it to you, dear professor! *hugs*

And you should definitely list things there--your painting would fit in well.

Thank you so much :-)

When the painting is finished, I shall enlist my friend Diane's help... She has that amazing camera, and so we could take an excellent digital photograph of it... which I could then use for quality prints on archival paper... I could also do small paintings...

*wheels in head turning*

Oooh, sounds like an excellent plan!

I really do admire your drive. I know that you are often very humble about what you accomplish, but seriously, you are such an inspiration--you write and write and write, and when you think of something, you do it. Just amazing.

May I say, my dearest one, that I admire your resourcefulness... And your traveling fortitude ;-)
