I have ALWAYS been intimidated by blank books… I can’t spell, and I want it to be right so while I am overthinking how to make it all look pretty the inspiration goes up in smoke. The greatest gift to me was a computer. It is the perfect conduit for my dyslexic brain. I can type as fast as my brain creates and then go back and fix it.
I was a bit of a disaster on Samhain…working outside with pages being held down with twigs and rocks so I wouldn’t lose them. I decided I needed a workable book.
Therefore… I have followed @Francisco 's lead and started using a three ring binder to print my pages out and ORGANIZE them. Something I am actually pretty good at, I just need a lot of space and time to do it.
I am pleased to say that I think I am well on my way to having a really satisfying Book of Shadows. I am slowly printing out the files on my computer and getting them slipped into place.
This has been a great project… it is cleaning up my life in many ways. I was always frustrated and amazed at the beautiful ‘pages’ offered for download on etsy and other sites, but thanks to Spells8 I now know exactly what kind of information is useful and which pages I can toss.
Just another reason this site has been such a blessing in my life.
