This month, a book recommendation and a great website…:-)

Here’s a cool new book on a topic you don’t see much about: Supported Spinning! Click here for the link. Per the author herself: “The greatest book ever written about supported spinning! Looks offstage. Yes. I know this is the only book ever written about supported spinning, but I have to write something for the back cover copy …glances offstage again …because the guy who printed the books told me blank covers look, well, suspicious. Turns toward the stage wing… I am not going to rant about that on the back cover… faces front... OK, so this book is just full to the brim with over 400 pages describing everything you need to know about spinning with a supported spindle. Included with the erudite, entertaining text and stunning photographs are 25 videos taken by total non-professionals who had some trouble figuring out which buttons to press on the camera, but all in all, we think they came out pretty well!”

The second wonderful discovery this month was stumbling upon Craigslistseek. This website allows you to seek ALL of the Craigslists in one fell swoop. So, if you are on the hunt for something on Craigslist, I urge you to try it. I’ve used it successfully three times in the last month to find things I was trying to find.
