This list shares the real things I learned after getting my books into local retail shops and co-ops — the stuff I truly wish I had known sooner. I’m documenting my journey in real time as I grow from a few local shops to expanding into retail stores around the country. I’ll keep adding new cards as I go, so you can learn alongside me and see what actually works (and what doesn’t). If you create something handmade — books, journals, candles, art, food, or anything else — there is absolutely room for you in retail. My goal is to make this path feel less intimidating and more doable. If you’re on a similar journey, I’d love to know what you make!
