Zeeba Ville

Following my attempt to be free of the Rat Race by 10-10-10.

It was a fairly quiet day at the shop today. Quiet is sometimes a good thing for a bookshop, well for my bookshop. It gives me a chance to put more books 'into the system'. We have a fairly constant supply of books lying around just waiting to get noticed. Noticed meaning either getting put into our database and thus onto the dozen or so Internet sites we sell on (the grandest spot for a Zeeba Book), or priced and shelved, or -insert name of diety here- forbid tossed into the box destined for the thrift shop..and of course a few moldy/torn has-been books find the recycling bin.

Zeeba Books has a new employee. John Goodman will be under the microscope for a few weeks. I'm sure he'll do well. Charlotte will be away most of the summer and we'll be needing some extra help.

Our store name appeared in the Canadian Booksellers Association's magazine under the list of new members. Slowly but surely I'm beginning to feel like a real bookman. Feels Good!
