The pub in the previous post was The Red Rover
Here at Michael's Bookshop where I work in Ramsgate we had a very quiet day which I spent making new header boards for the "Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror" section which I have recently expanded.
Our fiction book sales are fairly strong at the moment and I am hoping to expand our other fiction sections, crime fiction, general fiction and children's fiction during the coming year.

I am taking as much advantage or the road closures around the bookshop as I can, no busses here makes a considerable difference to how busy we are.
With the secondhand book business the limiting factor is the amount of good salable books that you can buy and price cheaper than the are on the internet, fortunately we are still buying a lot, so it all comes out about the same in the end.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
