Thank you my friend, I am excited to get you your copy. I really appreciate your presence in my life and wish you bountiful harvests foraging in your mystery garden :)
I did the Ruth Stout method with potatoes. I had organic potatoes from the farmer's market all winter stored in a cardboard box, and let what was leftover to sprout. Some of the sprouts were a foot long! I just placed them on the ground (no digging) and covered with a thick hay/straw mixture. I haven't watered or weeded the garden once, but we've had A LOT of rain. The plants look super-healthy (fingers crossed!) Two tomato plants, parsley, cilantro, and some greens. All hanging in there. The rest of the garden I just let go. Lots of surprises coming up! Of course, Queen Yarrow is inside her stone circle in the middle. That's my report from the Mystery Garden. :) xo
Thanks Ann. Yes, Even though I have not delivered the books to those who had pre-ordered a copy yet, the fact that the physical books have been printed and are on their way to me feels like a great weight off my shoulders.
It is (and was) indeed a Huge process! I had no idea how much was involved getting into this (and drastically underestimated how long it would take) but now I know for strategizing for my next book so this was a very beneficial learning process ;)
Thank you for recognizing how much I care about the quality, durability, practicality and layout of my book. At times there was pressure to just rush and get it out but I wanted to get it right so I did not fold despite some setbacks, so your comment means a lot.
Congrats, Gavin!! I'm so excited for you - and for me to have a hard copy in my hands soon! xo
