Martha says that I should set up a knife-sharpening (bike-powered), shoe-shining, pest-control service…maybe with a little bike repair on the side.
I could have a little trailer-cart that I pedal around.
I could also offer my books, apparel, CDs, DVDs and luggage. Make a nice display. It would be like a mobile man-booth. (Then I could also sign up for booths at craft fairs.)
I told her that I’m going to do all I can to make sure that publishing earns us more than knife-sharpening and shoe-shining! And I’m even going to pull ahead of her LazyGal potholders and scarves if possible!
…But if I had to, that doesn’t sound so bad. (Ann Arbor might be a better place to live for a tinker, I suppose.)
