Here's my latest post at Beyond the Trestle. It's a couple days late so sort of a rush-write, but I trust it will make sense.

I'm still blogging, I promise!
Hello there, avid Avid supporters. At least 30 times in the last couple of months, I've thought, "Eek! I have to update the Avid Blogger.com account so people know I've not fallen off the face of the earth."
And then I promptly forget to update the blog.
Things are still progressing rather swimmingly, if I do say so myself. I have been updating the Facebook fan page and the store's Twitter account frequently, and I've been work-work-working on getting more startup capital, doing bookstore internships, having meetings with folks from Athens-area nonprofits, chatting with local bankers, and more.
I've also been blogging about literature and reading on an Athens website called Beyond the Trestle. So far people have left encouraging and thought-provoking comments. Check out my weekly entries here: http://beyondthetrestle.com/blogs/janet-geddis
Of course I'll update you with any and all major developments. For now, rest assured that things are still moving along and we're on track toward opening in a few months' time. As always, you can email me with any questions or comments.
Take care, and happy reading!

summer's sweltering heat is here...
...and it's not even summer yet!
Ah, Georgia. I love you and your too-cozy, energy-zapping humidity, languid evenings on the porch, and early mornings walking as the sun burns the last of the cool air away.
Things have been busy as usual around here. That 2-week turnaround time it takes to get one's sales and use tax certificate isn't exactly...um...accurate. It's been 9 weeks for me, so I'm alternating between pestering the state of Georgia and trying to exercise patience.
I'm honored to be a regular contributor to the popular Athens website Beyond the Trestle. Today the site published my inaugural post; look for me on Wednesdays to talk about literature and reading. This week's entry is called "A Literary Love Affair." Please use the comments section to let me know what you think!
