Care To Have My Autograph?



Yep...I think I'm starting to get the "big head". Nah...not really! I just had my 5th blog book published, so I do have quite a collection going now.  I tell you, each time I get one in the mail and I start turning the pages, I can't resist grinning from ear-to-ear.  Oh, it's not that I think I'm such an AWESOME writer, which I certainly don't, but these books bring so many memories back to life for me.  I'm curious...have you ever had a blog book published?  I've always done mine through Blog2Print.  They do an excellent job and I, usually, receive my book in about a week or so. I've never been disappointed.

Now that I'm a "published author", I sure hope the paparazzi don't follow me all over the place trying to get just the right photo.  This celebrity stuff could get out of hand QUICKLY, you know? :)

Hello, I'm April, welcome to my blog. I look at every day as an adventure and an opportunity to laugh and to learn. You will soon discover that my family and my faith are at the heart of who I am.

I've got three and have enough posts written at the moment to do two more right now. I put about 100 posts in a book. I love them too and I think its funny that many of our houseguests take them to their rooms for bedtime reading. I do mine thru Shared books which I think is the same thing as Blog2Print.

Congrats to you!! And to think... YOU know me by name.

*sigh* I am kinda starry eyed.

Way to go. I am working on mine but haven't had them made yet.

Kimberly said...

I am going to do it really soon!

You're too funny. :) I have done mine also by Blog2print.
I print at the end of each year so I have two.

They are defintly fun to flip through. :)

Nobody's asked for my autograph yet. Haha

I always wondered about those, April! Are they difficult to have done? Do they just print directly from your blog? I would love to have some made! Lori

Thanks for this recommendation, April! I've been considering having my teaching posts put into a book. In fact, I may get my family to do it for a Christmas present. LOL

Congrats on your book, BTW! You're gonna be ranked right on up there with John Grisham before you know it! :)

That is awesome! How does it work? Do you have to put it in any kind of order? I would love to publish mine too.

Ha ha! That is funny! I had another blog but had a very mean stalker who scared the daylights out of me since all of our names were readily available so I had to go private. I decided I didn't like that so I started my new, current blog. I need to get my previous blog printed. Glad you gave a good review of Blog2Print since that is the one with which I'm familiar.

Such a great idea April and a wonderful way to preserve family memories! I'll have to do this and check out the site. Oh - and when do I get my autograph??!!! :-)

I can't even believe I know a real celebrity author. This is so stinking exciting. I haven't made a book. I am not as cool as you April ; )

I did it with all my Project 365 posts & I LOVE having them... but I love you do it with all your posts... I should really keep up on that. Nothing like having your thoughts & pictures & memories of life near by!

So glad you posted this! I've checked into doing having my blog made into books; glad to see that you recommend a particular site. Hope I can e-mail you with questions when I start the process...?

michele said...

How fun!! I really want to do this!

FrouFrouBritches said...

Wow! And I can say I knew you back when you only had four published blog books! I totally need your autograph!

I glad you posted this. I had heard of doing this, but didn't know how or where to do it. Is it expensive? Do you submit which posts you want published or just do them all or what?

Cyndy Bush said...

I've never done that, but I know I should!
I hope you don't let fame go to your head! ;-)

Having my blog printed is something that has crossed my mind. Not sure if I'll ever get around to it! Yours look great!
