it’s so nice to see many many books are coming onto the market to help independent designers, artists, and crafters get their work into stores and into people’s homes. one of the latest on shelves is kari chapin’s the handmade marketplace: how to sell your crafts locally, globally, and online (storey 2010). i was really honored to be interviewed for the book and had so much fun reading through a copy yesterday afternoon and hearing what so many of my favorite designers, retailers, and bloggers had to say. if you’re looking to get your business off the ground and want to hear some great, easy-to-use advice, click here to check out kari’s new book at amazon. congrats, kari!
