Coming Soon to a Computer Near You

I’ve been tossing together an idea for a couple of weeks now.  Last month I had a conversation with my friend and fellow Fiskateer Lead Angela.  While at CHA, I stumbled across some new craft books and thought it would be great if I could share those reads with several Fiskateers. 

So, I am excited to announce a new Fiskateer Book Club coming soon to a computer near you.  I hoping that this book club will not only introduce you to some great artists, but inspire all of us as well.  Now the majority of the books that I select will be about the craft that we Fiskateers love the most, scrapbooking.  But I will also toss in a book every once in awhile about other crafting interests such as collage and fabric arts, self help books filled with creative inspiration, and an occasional novel as well.

With this book club will come challenges, on-line chats with authors and some surprises too.  I have just spent the last several weeks with my nose deeply buried in my first selected book, and I can’t wait to share it with you!

But I need your help to get this little project off on a roll.  I’m looking for a great name for this little book club.  Any ideas?
