A Dragon goes Blogging!!

A rumbling comes from deep in the cave (also known as a home office) as the Dragon reads over her e-mail digests...

"At last!" she exclaims "Here is a way to let stitchers and other Dragon Dreams fans know that I AM alive without updating the whole website!"

You see... when your business begins to grow... or when your distributors suddenly place orders at the same time... or when you do a silly thing and challenge stitchers to show off their creativity in a contest that floods your e-mail several times each day... or when you have to go hunting to shut down yet another site that is trying to share your designs illegally... you suddenly discover that there is far less time to do the designing and stitching that made you start y our own company in the first place... unless you give up what sleep you still manage to cram into each day.

While I try to keep our on-line newsletter (http://DragonDreams.accra.ca/news.html) updated once a month (and NO... September's update is NOT don e yet!) this is a far more immediate way to share the musings and mutterings that so many people seem to enjoy most about the newsletter. (I still don't quite understand why?)

Blogging is a really neat twist on ways to use the Internet, especially if you like having the last... err... the ONLY word (I can just see the look on Nick's face now!)

So welcome to a tiny spot in the universe where THIS dragon will share her rumblings and musings about stitching, about copyright abuse, about fantasy, about bein g creative for a living and a whole lot more.

May your threads seldom tangle and your life's tapestry be full of colour!
