For the past week, whenever I’ve thought about this endeavor, I mostly felt all kinds of discouraged. I haven’t had time to do much with it, and to be totally honest, I haven’t had as many ideas for posts as I thought I would. Granted, I haven’t had time to think about any post ideas, either. But I’m still hopeful.

I’m hopeful because I know that people like my bead jewelry, and people (generally) like my writing, too.

I’m hopeful because I have an amazing husband who is encouraging me to stick with this thing.

I’m hopeful because I know there is a lot of potential here.

I’m hopeful, but I’m not under any delusion that I can make this place bloom overnight. I’m not even very optimistic that I can make it bloom in a month…

But I’m going to stick with this…even if I only manage to post a few things in a month’s time.

And I’m going to implore you, my few readers, to help me out. Send me ideas for topics to write about, things you want to know, people you think I should connect with or interview or whose products or methods I should feature. And send the link to this site to anyone who might like it or have ideas of their own to contribute, too.

It would be SO much fun to turn this into some kind of collaborative place, don’t you think?

Let’s do it.

…Please?
