Used bookdealer by day
» Gallimaufry
The only online journal I’ve ever had anybody ask me to add to is* the one that I created with the intent of writing about my days here at my used bookshop. For a long stretch I forgot about it. When I’m at work I never think of writing about it. When I’m at home I wisely think little about work. Lately I’ve been adding about an entry a week. I’m not a rare book dealer. When a pricey book comes my way I’m delighted. I most enjoy selling academic and scholarly titles. Mostly we sell a little bit of that and a little bit of that: gardening, queer theory, poetry, music, and crappy religious texts. If it will help us pay the bills we’ll probably put it on the shelves. (Why does MS Word’s grammar checker think the word should be ‘be'?)
