@Brit have you head of Edward Bok? He was the editor of the Ladies' Home Journal from 1890-1920 and a Pulitzer winner http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edw... He did some really amazing things as the editor of the magazine, making it into much more than "just" a home journal. He has a really amazing auto-biography outlining his years as the editor. Thought it might be great for someone undertaking what you are now, plus it's free/out of copyright. http://www.amazon.com/Americaniz... Pretty random I know, but it's really one of if not my favorite book, so wanted to share.

Congrats on the launch @Brit! What inspired the foray into publishing for you?

@eriktorenberg Thanks! It was really weird to go from always publishing on a digital platform to writing a book. But I felt like I had a lot to say and teach -- much more than a website article or blog post could cover. Plus I think there's an innate desire for the digital generation to reference and display handmade objects these days. I hope Homemakers is something that will sit on coffee tables and act as a handbook for years to come.
