Reviews of Zanzibar Palace Hotel
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Zanzibar Palace Hotel review
The Zanzibar Palace Hotel is a very pleasant, atmospheric hotel.
We enjoyed our stay there & found the personnel very obliging & friendly.
Zanzibar Palace Hotel Review
Zanzibar Palace Hotel is on the edge of Stone Town (the older portion of Zanzibar Town). It is convenient to the harbor and many popular sites in Stone Town are within easy walking distance. The hotel offers breakfast along with the room: a choice of typical egg and meat choices, some fruit, juices, breads and coffee/tea. With the many restaurants in the area, we did not have other meals there, although lunch and dinner were available.
The room we had, the Sultana, was charming and the air conditioner made it comfortable with the outside temperature very warm and humid. We also complement the service staff at the front desk for their very warm welcome and helpful assistance with various questions that came up during our stay.
Our only disappointment was the first room we were assigned, a "luxury" room (called "Nadia", I believe). This room, on a lower floor, is a very dark and tiny room with a small double bed. For $250 U.S. per night, it was completely unsatisfactory for the two of us, who were anticipating a relaxing haven for several days. After complaining, we were able to 'upgrade' to the Sultana room, which is a larger room on an upper floor. In hindsight, we may have been able to arrange nicer accommodations for a better price if we had done more research ourselves, comparing hotels in the area.
Good location, clean hotel, friendly staff
A lovely hotel located within the little alleyways of Stone Town.
The rooms are very clean and charmingly decorated as well. We spent most of our time roaming the streets of Stone Town to which the hotel is very informative and helpful in showing you how to get around.
Unfortunately, our stay was vey short-lived but the staff went out of their way to even pack us a to-go breakfast box each to have on our journey home :-)

Zanzibar Palace Hotel review
Great hotel. Lovely people. Food and room was very special.
I would have scored higher and recommended but I was charged to use my card. Not good for a hotel. Not happy. Shame. If the management could change this
Zanzibar Palace Hotel review
Zanzibar Palace did seem very tired and in need of some re-decoration. It didn't look like it had been touched in about 20 years and it just seemed an oddly put together hotel.
Certainly not close to the standard of anywhere else we stayed
Expert Africa comments
The Zanzibar Palace is styled in the fashion of faded grandeur of times gone by - the aim is to look antiqued. However we have passed these comments on to the Zanzibar Palace, so as to ensure that this style hasnt spilled over into lack of care and attention to detail.
Nice friendly hotel, bit old fashioned for us
This was a really nice hotel and the staff there were very nice and made a real effort to make our last stop on honeymoon special, but the decor itself wasn't quite our thing.
Having said that the main thing we wanted from Stone Town was a good tour and the tour guide we had was excellent.
There were good bits of the hotel - a nice freestanding bath in the suite we were in, nice beds and good roof top views, but we did see some more modern hotels in Stone Town - Mashariki Palace I think was one - which seemed a bit more special.

Zanzibar Palace Hotel
Beautifully decorated room and well located within Stone Town. We had the Arabica suite which had a small outside balcony.
Very attentive and pleasant service, especially front desk and at breakfast. The only drawback would be the stairs, as Arabica is at the top of the building. We are relatively fit and only middle aged. An older or less fit couple might find the steep stairs more of a problem.
Zanzibar Palace Hotel review
We loved our 'Arabica' suite, even though we feel we did no spend enough time in it to do it justice! We only had a day and a half in Stonetown and so many things to see... The hotel is well located, but as we have found out, nothing is ever far in Stonetown, it is just a question of finding your way around!
Owners and staff were very pleasant and efficient. The hotel if full of character and takes you back in the days of the Sultans, with wifi, flat-screen TVs and DVD players as a bonus! ;-)
We really enjoyed our short stay in Stonetown (after the initial culture shock!) and were very pleased with our choice of hotel.

Tunica police and Sheriff's deputies marked National Police Week, May 9-15, with the annual Police Memorial Program on May 14 in downtown Tunica. Peace Officers Memorial Day was officially designated in 1962; since then, thousands of law enforcement officers have honored and remembered those that paid the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. At this year's program, special recognition was offered to the family of Deputy Trenda Watts of Tunica, who though not killed in the line of duty, died last year in an automobile accident.

(Not sure yet?)
I was sitting on the couch with a controller in hand and a box of Cheezits between my arm and my side. I was currently in the living room, which was dark, since I hadn't bothered to turn on the lights. I'm pretty lazy when I am home alone with nothing to do but chill with my dog. I was playing Final Fantasy (13), with my phone resting on my thigh, when a knock at the window broke me out of my trance. I accidentally dropped my controller and got up, my phone falling to the floor as well. The curtains were closed and so were the blinds. Hesitantly, I drew away one curtain and slightly opened the blinds, and drew back in surprise, stifling a gasp. I, fortunately, had put on clothes and brushed my teeth and everything. Boredom gets you to do stuff. Especially in the summer.
My friend, or, more so acquaintance, was at my window. His name was Jason Lee, a freshman going on sophomore. I was going into high school, and he was my best friend's brother's friend; we had been introduced to each other, but never really talked. At all. Even less so since I was not a talker. At all. And right now, he was waving at me through my living room window. What, I asked myself, should I do?
I waved back, mostly out of friendly instinct, and rushed to meet him as he walked to the front door. I opened the door, still quite startled. He was dressed in a faded gray t-shirt, fitting jeans, and worn-out sneakers. His long dark hair fell down face, just reaching his shoulders and his warming smile reached his coffee-brown eyes. I had always thought he was pretty cute, but I knew he was probably one of those guys you wouldn't want if you were looking for a real relationship. I didn't know for sure, but I was the kind of person to stay on the safe side of things; watch things from a distance. Watching things from the shadows was a great way to get information. Especially when you blended right in and you didn't have a problem of anyone seeing you, it turns out to be quite effective.

Musharraf, on the charge of treason and many other, has been produced before an anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Saturday, April 20. Musharraf was surrounded by his bodyguards and other security personnel when he reached the court premise on Saturday.
He waved and saluted to his followers before entering the courtroom amid chaotic scenes with lawyers raising slogans against the him and scuffling with his supporters. No one was allowed to come close to him. Musharraf waved to his followers again as he left the court.
Musharraf was presented in the court of in-charge judge ATC Kausar Abbas Zaidi. The former president, who faces several charges, was arrested in connection to the judges' detention case on Friday.
He recorded his statement after consulting his legal representatives. Police officers and investigators met Musharraf on Friday while his counsel met him on Saturday morning.
Names of 14 witnesses have been included in the incomplete challan (charge-sheet) against the former dictator. The judicial magistrate had granted a two-day transit remand to Musharraf on Friday.
The former Pakistani dictator was whisked away by his security guards from a court here after the latter cancelled his bail and ordered an immediate arrest. Musharraf had returned to Pakistan in March 2013 from a four-year self-exile to contest the May 11 elections but all his nominations were rejected.

Monday In Korea
Essay by: Morgan Lee
Status: Finished
Genre: Non-Fiction
Monday I was in Korea
It's another Monday night, my family and I are gathered around me-maw's new mahogany wood, sheet covered, dinner table. Our plates are pilled with mashed potatoes, cornbread, fried chicken, green beans and corn on the cob. We assemble as a family to listen to the ups and downs of the past week and when our plates are empty and our bellies full my grandfather begins tell us of the good ole days. He tells of days when the work was harder and the times were simpler, when men were men and people could be trusted by their words to carry out their actions. Papaw, as my grandfather is affectionately called, leans back in his special chair; high and with a quilted pillow in the seat for his long legs and bad back, he intertwines his fingers and I see him glare off into the middle distance, remembering his younger days. My sweet papaw, whose hair has turned white and the sun from a farmers life has wrinkled his skin, tells us all one of his stories. I don't have a favorite one, I love them all. He has stories from when he fought in Korea, to when he was "going steady" with my grandmother (me-maw), to when he was growing up working on the farm. Tonight, when the air is hot and iced tea sweats through the glasses, with his deep southern drawl, he talks about the war.
"I recall this one time, my troop and I was on our way to a new campsite, we had to walk through a field of grass, it was very tall grass all the way up to your chest, and you couldn't see anything. I was so on edge. The enemy could be there in that grass; you could have walked over top of them and never even seen them. We were all spread out and bent over walking through so cautious, trying not to be seen or heard."
I sat there with my elbows on the table and my head in my hands, I was on edge, despite hearing this story more than once it still intrigued me every time he recalled it. How brave he was, to trust in himself and his troop to walk blindly through the grass with his helmet on, gun drawn and 40 pounds of gear on his back. Retelling it, his smile fades; he puts his elbows on the table and leans over. I noticed that everyone else leans in too trying to get closer. I've found myself draw in, walking in the grass beside him.
"It was so quiet, the only the sounds were of our feet in the mud and bodies brushing against the grass. Three other men were in front of me when all of a sudden a great mass of birds took off out of the grass, straight up into the air. We all dropped down into the grass, I knew right then it was a massive strike, a grenade had gone off or someone was firing mortars on us. I don't think I have ever been as startled as in that moment. Those dumb birds made us all think we were dead."
He started to laugh, we laughed with him. He leaned back in his chair again, his fingers intertwined across his belly. His smile fades again. Everyone else starts to chat among themselves, but I sit back and look at my papaw, his faded smile and eyes looking down at the table. I know he must be remembering things he can't tell us. Stories that didn't turn out funny, his tiny green eyes glaze over and I catch him drift away, back to Korea. I remember other stories Papaw has told me, stories were driving through the darkness on the edge of a mountain behind enemy lines, drinking the water from rice fields and getting shot at was just another day, just another duty for his country, and just another sacrifice till he could get home to his wife to be. So much depended upon a man, who went to war and came back home, now so many rely on a husband, a father, and a papaw.

How Flu Spreads, by the CDC
Tina Miller, MA,CFLE stashed this in health
Stashed in:
How Flu SpreadsPerson to PersonPeople with flu can spread it to others up to about 6 feet away. Most experts think that flu viruses are spread mainly by droplets made when people with flu cough, sneeze or talk. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs. Less often, a person might also get flu by touching a surface or object that has flu virus on it and then touching their own mouth or nose.To avoid this, people should stay away from sick people and stay home if sick. It also is important to wash hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub. Linens, eating utensils, and dishes belonging to those who are sick should not be shared without washing thoroughly first. Eating utensils can be washed either in a dishwasher or by hand with water and soap and do not need to be cleaned separately. Further, frequently touched surfaces should be cleaned and disinfected at home, work and school, especially if someone is ill.The Flu Is Contagious

Preparation~ Part One
That night I thought about what Skrybe had said. At the same time I also tried to forget about what Pailadyn had said. I sat down on the edge of my bed and began to list what I knew:
Anger was an emotion.
Anger hardened my will.
Therefore emotion hardened my will.
Pailadyn was crazy.
I exhaled loudly and punched my pillow. No. Bad. Stay focused on what was important.
What if Pailadyn is important?
It didn't matter how important she was. She wasn't the difference between life and death.
Who saved your life again?
I shook my head and tried to build on my list.
I don't think that you can create emotion.
Skrybe didn't say yes one way or the other.
Could you create emotion? I was sitting on my bed feeling bored, but I didn't have any defining emotion. I could put myself in an angry mood by thinking about how Pailadyn wouldn't talk to me. But I hadn't created that emotion.
I tried to replay my conversation with Skrybe:
"You don't call that control?" said Skrybe.
"I… well no. Not really. I can't control when I feel emotions."
"You can't? or you don't think you can?"
No, I didn't think I could control emotions. Simple as that. Creating them was impossible. They were stimulated. They were a reaction. You couldn't have a reaction without an action. And I couldn't create such an action.
Create. Control.
Control. Create.
There was something about those two words that just seemed to spark something in me. I could feel that I was close to making a connection. But what was the connection? Create and control weren't the same thing! How could I-
Create and control… weren't the same thing.
"I… well no. Not really. I can't control when I feel emotions."
"You can't? or you don't think you can?"
That was my mistake. I had made "Control when I feel emotions" synonymous with "creating emotions." I could control when I felt emotions. I could repress sadness, I could ignore anger, I could be cheerful by thinking of a happy memory.
Anger hardened my will. Were there emotions that weakened my will? Will was a need to win. A need to be better. A need to achieve.
Up until now I had been trying to stay calm in the Arena. Calm was, in a way, complacency. Passivity. A lack of emotion.
But I couldn't just abandon being calm. If I gave into anger completely I would become reckless. If I gave into fear I would be fighting like a cornered animal, but a cornered animal isn't rational, it is berserk. If a cat cornered by a dog was acting rationally, it would realize it was more than likely outmatched.
I remembered a rafting trip that my family had taken back when I was just starting high school. We had come to a rock that you could jump off. When you got to the top and looked down, you began to think about the long drop and how it could be bad for you. That's why they tell people "don't think about it, just jump!" They were told to abandon reason and leap without looking.
Jumping of a rock was one thing, fighting for your life was completely different. Leaping without looking would eventually end you up in a bad spot that hadn't seen because you weren't looking.
I didn't need to be able to spontaneously make emotions. What I needed was to be able to switch between rationality and emotion. I needed to know when to fuel my will, and when to step back and plan my next move.
The key wasn't to create, but to control.

Industry News
New App Allows Riddles of the Ancients to be Solved on the Phone
This week saw the release of MagIQ Square, a game that makes it possible to solve thousand-year old puzzles on a 21st century phone. It is available on the App Store - for iPad, iPhone and iPod. Those who like Sudoku will love the MagIQ Square.
Those who like Wordfeud or Sudoku, are likely to love the MagIQ Square. Solving the MagIQ Square requires logic and strategic thinking while also providing a little bit of mental math workout. It is possible to compete against oneself, and challenge others, at different levels of difficulty.
High Score Charts
The personal best on each level is stored in the app, and the results can be uploaded to a league table, ranking the best players from around the world. Use as few moves as possible, but don't be too slow, since time is used to separate players with an equal number of moves. From the app it is possible to challenge friends and compete for a position on the charts.
How to Play
The aim of the game is to arrange the tiles so that the sum of each row, each column and both diagonals is the same. In a square like this that sum is 34.
At the start of each game, the tiles are randomly arranged. As a side note, there are more than 20 trillion different starting combinations, but – rest assured - they all have a solution...
The "greyed out" tiles are locked into the right positions from the start. The more locked tiles, the easier it is to solve the square. On the easiest level, half of the tiles are locked. On the most difficult level, only two tiles are locked. Perhaps counter-intuitively, the more freedom you have, the more difficult it gets.
Grand Prize
Contributors to the high score table will also enter a contest where the prize is a trip to an exotic destination, as yet undisclosed. The contest starts January 1, 2013, so start practicing now to get a flying start. For full competition terms and conditions, see http://www.magiqsquare.com.
Several ancient civilizations were familiar with magic squares. The concept is believed to have originated in China some time BC and slowly diffused to medieval Europe via Persia, India and Arabia. Magic squares have tantalized mathematicians for centuries and have been associated with mystical properties and hidden messages - perhaps most recently in Dan Brown's novel "The Lost Symbol".

very knowledgeable
I have seen Dr.Gomez in the hospital many times as a consult for my asthma. My asthma is very difficult at best. He always has taken the time to speak with me about meds and history to be reviewed. I have also seen him in the office as well. He is with Pulmonary and Critical Care Consultants, I see him when my Pulmo is working in critical care unit at Medical City Dallas. Very nice and knowledgeable. I would very much trust my care to this doctor.

Fantastic doctor!
Listens to every word you say. Demonstrates genuine empathy. Works well with other specialists to help identify your problem, if needed. He is fabulous in every way. When I went to him I had serious lung problems that other doctors told me were a mystery and I would likely die from it because they couldn't accurately diagnose it. (I was 36 years old). Dr. Gomez recognized it as being autoimmune disease. After looking at my history he was shocked that no other specialist had noticed my odd health history before. He not only gave me hope but he gave me my quality of life back. I no longer have any problems with my lungs and he probably saved me a lifetime of future health problems by getting me to the right place for autoimmune treatment.

Nikon D70 Review
1 Introduction
|2 Next
The D70, announced on 28th January 2004 is Nikon's answer to the new sub-$1,000 digital SLR market, its clear competition being the Canon EOS 300D (Digital Rebel) announced last August. The D70 is revealed by Nikon exactly two years since the D100, the D70 appears to share quite a lot with its sibling including a six megapixel CCD sensor and Multi-CAM900 auto focus system. The D70 also appears to have quite a bit going for it which are the primary complaints for EOS 300D owners, flash exposure compensation being one of them.

I look at the 16x20s on my wall made with my 2004 D70, I'm amazed at how 6mp still looks so good. But then again, I have great 11x14s made with the Olympus C2100UZ and my Sony DSC-F717 that preceded it.
I still own it, for the same reason as others. It marked my entry into serious digital photography, and when the company I was working for in 2005 went bust, I used it to shoot weddings and family portraits to keep income coming in till I snagged a new job.
I had a more personal reason for selecting the Nikon D70 over the Canon: I owned a LOT of FD glass, and I'd inherited some nice Ai and AiS lenses from my father. At a wedding, I saw a guest shooting with a D70 and a 35mm f2 MF lens on a D70. When he explained that - unlike Canon - Nikon didn't orphanize its MF customers when it went AF, the choice was easy.
Moved to D300, bought a 5DMarkII for video - least reliable camera I've ever owned - sold it and bought a cheaper D7000 that made great video. Now, I'm all Sony...
Great article. this was my first DSLR. I still have and use it as a second camera and my boys use it with the original battery which still lasts for weeks! I bought it on size and fit as I was moving from OM 2 film cameras. The Canon 300D was too small and fidly. I stepped up to full frame with a Sony Alpha 7, another classic (in the making), rather than a D800 as I thought the D800 to large and heavy.
I still own a D70 and have no intention of ever selling. The sharpness is incredible even today. While I've upgraded to D7000 for many reasons, including low light, if I have good lighting, such as outdoors, the D70 will always come through as grand as any crop sensor to date!
Recently the shutter went out on my beloved D7000, trying to decide between D7200/D500. Dusted off my D70s to use until I decide and was amazed at the color and the quality. Forgotten about things like tone curves... Reala (?) etc. Black and White conversion are hands down much better than any other camera I have owned.
I will soon replace my D7000, but after using my D70s for a couple of months, I am wondering why I kept wasting time and money on my other mirrorless cameras.
My first DSLR. The one that started my passion for photogprahy. I will also have a soft spot for this one 🤗
very nice camera.
I have a d70 and love it, but I need a camera with higher megapixels (14 mp or higher), could anyone tell me which of the newer Nikons would be the modern equivalent of a d70.
I have Nikon D3200 and I use it for landscape photography and I can get great shot comparable with today 10,000 Dollar expensive cameras.
if you want just more megapixel and don't shoot action / birds D3200 is best you can get. if you wanna action too than maybe D5300 also can almost give what you want.
I still love to shooting with my D40 and my D50 and my D200 in my free times. and I use my D810 only when I want to print my pic's. this is one of shots with my Nikon D50
If you dont want to participate in Megapixel race created by Camera Makers & need a camera for photography not for "Bells & whistles" which you are not going to use anyway then this is the camera for you.Nowadays we are paying for features which stay unused & has no direct impact on improving our skills to create a great shot because great shot come from great imaginations & experience not cameras.
Had this DSLR since 2004 and I still can't get enough of it. It feels so much more solid than any reasonably priced offerings of modern day. And the kit lens...what a fantastic kit lens! Reaches longer and has a faster aperture than any kit lens of today. A true workhorse combination.
I have one - I wouldn't say it feels more solid. It's about as composite (plastic)-ish as any other well built Nikon (or other brand). My ex-GF dropped her sister's D70 years ago; it cracked down the middle and stopped working, so they're not exactly bulletproof. :)
I think thant as of January 2005 it's one of the most popular cameras of all time and usually in short supply. Since stores can sell as many of them as Nikon can ship no one has any reason to have to discount. I've never seen a discount from anyone, and all the discounts I've seen are from scam operations who never really have any to ship. I just got on a waiting list and my camera appeared. Be very wary of fraud over the internet. Adorama and B&H and Amazon are fine, but be careful of the thousands of others offering these.
Hi am just asking i real don't know what wrong with my camera D70 i just took 350 picture then there no more spice in my me Compact Flash Memory Cards is full

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I have recently successfully won a contempt hearing regarding my to be ex wife she was found guilty on multiple counts of contempt. My question is can she in the future get the contempt charges expunged from her criminal record. She was charged with 8 counts, through a fully noticed trial in family court. Also what are my chances of getting 50% custody now with the conviction. The reason I went ahead is because she is not and never will be willing to be civil or mediate any custody, this was my only chance to tip the scales in my favor for once.
A contempt adjudication does not create a record of a "cfriminal conviction", so there's nothing to "expunge". Whether or not you can obtain a 50/50 custodial time-share will havwe very little to do with the contempt proceeding, and much more to do with the children's best interests. One of the things a court is going to have to consider in making a 50/50 custody order is the extent to which the parents can cooperate regarding parenting, which, right now, doesn't sound like it's very much.Ask a similar question
So even though She is found guilty of contempt (not giving me my court ordered visitations), I am still stuck in the same spot I was before because she doesn't want to mediate and bring this to an end? I thought once the contempt goes through its considered a change in circumstances and the court will have to intervene?

Sep 30, 2013 at 8:11 pm #1308230
John S.BPL Member
How it Works:
SATcase creator Jim Thomson says the Satcase is very user friendly. Simply insert your smartphone into the case, close the cover and click the latches closed. Install the SATcase app on your phone and continue to call, text and e-mail as normal.
The seamless pairing of these two devices results in one multi-purpose, familiar tool that could save your life. The SATcase is going to be a real game-changer for remote communications and personal safety.
Global Satellite Connectivity:
The SATcase works in conjunction with the Iridium satellite network, one of the most trusted names in global satellite communications. The SATcase enables your smartphone to access the Iridium network and make calls from anywhere on the planet.
Adventurers and workers can now carry a single device into remote locations, making it easy to pack light and stay safe.
Travellers on business or pleasure no longer have to worry about "unlocking" their phones and connecting to foreign cellular networks. Instead, they can rely on their SATcase for global connectivity in order to conduct business, contact family, or make arrangements while abroad.
Emergency Alerts:
The SATcase has its own internal battery, allowing it to offer multiple emergency features, such as the PLB, that function even when your smartphone is disconnected.
When the PLB mode is activated, it transmits a distress signal and alerts The International COSPAS-SARSAT Programme, which provides search and rescue monitoring services.
Overall, this new case has a lot of great features that will further increase the versatility of the average smartphone.
The SATcase is scheduled to debut on the market by the end of 2013. Initial models are only available for the Samsung S III/IV, but there are plans to make it available for other smartphone models down the road.

Could be interesting – Iridium + PLB + 121.5 MHz + …, tracking (unspecified method), waterproof (IP67), floats.
Unlikely to work as described with any iPhone, looks like they hijack Android phones to seamlessly route phone calls. But they could supply a separate iPhone app with access to your contacts for making sat phone calls.
Some similarities to the Thuraya SatSleeve, which works only with iPhone (go figure), and does much less. My comments on SatSleeve.
Cannot find weight of SATcase on their web site. If it's like SatSleeve which weighs as much as some standalone sat phones and the DeLorme inReach SE – much less interesting. To qualify as a PLB, you need a hefty battery.
They promise to ship in December. As always, my advice is: don't buy promises.

Thuraya updated the SatSleeve last month:
Added features: access to email, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and WhatsApp among others.
Basically looks like they added Internet access, but their marketing-speak never uses the word "Internet". Hmmm.
Weight and dimensions about the same as the old SatSleeve, though the iPhone 5 version is 22 grams heavier.
Note that Thuraya satellites do not cover the Americas.

Alyice Edrich is the author of several work-from-home e-books, including "Tid Bits For Making Money With E-books" where parents earn hundreds of dollars selling information they already possess.
Interview with Alyice Edrich:
Why did you decide to self-publish your book in e-book format?
In 1999 I did a lot of research to become a mobile notary, now called a Loan Document Signing Agent. Back then, there wasn't any printed material and I had to learn everything by trial and error. I joined a few messages boards where questions about getting started and frustrations about finding mentors abound. I knewI only wanted to work part-time as a mobile notary because I simply wanted it to get me out of the house for a few hours (I was a stay at home mom), but when I saw so many people having a hard time understanding the business and getting started, I took all my notes and compiled them into a book. At first, I printed bound copies at Kinkos and Office Depot, but then I began receiving requests to send the information over the Internet electronically. So I saved my word document as a pdf file and began manually emailing orders. Little did I realize back then, that I was actually publishing an e-book.
How did you compile your e-book?
There are many e-book compilers on the market, but after careful consideration, I chose Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Professional because anyone can download a free copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader to read the e-book.
Many people look at book covers before buying a book, how does that come into play with e-books?
I think e-book covers are just as important as bookcovers. Covers should convey the overall concept of the book because graphics draw attention. However, you don't need a cover to sell your book and I do not include cover graphics in my .pdf file because manyInternet users are still on old computers and graphics the size of a cover make the file too large to download which causes stalling when downloading. My e-book covers were designed by a third-party, then shrunk and placed on my sales page.
Do you have any plans to expand into print books?
At this time, I have no intentions of self-publishing print books. I'd rather work hard to get a traditional publisher to handle that aspect of thebusiness. I had a friend who self-published and the work involved was far more than I care to get into at this time and the costs far outweigh my financial abilities (Costs like: printing, packaging, shipping, ISBN numbers, catalogs, storage, etc.); however, it's not written in stone.
After publishing this book as an electronic book, would you do it again? And what's the key to selling?
In a heartbeat! I have ten books in electronic format and have plans for several more.The key to selling copies of your book in electronic format is to find an area that is NOT already covered. I have a few e-books that were written at the same time others were writing similar books (unbeknownst to me). Those books are harder to sell. Not impossible mind you, but I have to work harder to prove that my book is worthy of the buyer's dollars more so than the other author's book. Writing a book that is unique, when it comes to e-books, is crucial to reaping higher financial rewards, word of mouth buzz, and greater media coverage!

Photographing Your Quilts....
Alright, you've just spent weeks, maybe months making your quilt and now it's finally done! Time to take some pictures of your finished product! Whether it be for insurance purposes, an appraising, your quilt journal, whatever, a nice picture of your work is always a good thing to have. But if you're like the majority of us, you're not necessarily a photographer. Never fear, you can still take awesome pics of your beautiful handiwork. Here are a few tips to help you achieve that great picture!
1) Make sure your quilt is straight. Stand right in front of it and try to focus your camera on the center of your quilt. Different angles are sometimes done, but if you don't know what you're doing, your quilt can come out looking distorted and crooked.2) Use a backdrop. If you have a solid colored wall or a solid drop cloth, use that to shoot your quilt on. Your quilt has plenty of detail and you want those details to stand out, not to mention your colors and patterns. Backgrounds that are busy tend to take the focus away from your quilt instead of enhancing it. So when possible, use a solid backdrop to get at least one pic of just your entire quilt.3) Try different shots. After you get your backdrop shot, then you can be creative. Drape your quilt on the bed, the back of a sofa or chair. Take a pic of yourself with your quilt, it'd make a great photo-op!4) Since you probably don't have professional lighting just laying around ready to be used for your pics, consider taking some outside! Outside lighting is usually the best for bringing out colors and distinctions. Be careful not to take it in direct sunlight, which can be a little too harsh, or heavy overcast days, when it's hard for the sun to shine. A slightly overcast day or an open area that tends to be shady, would be perfect for taking your quilt pics! Drape them on a clothesline or over a railing for a wonderful "outdoorsy" look!5) If at all possible, use a digital camera. Most digitals have the capability to "zoom in" so you can get some great detail shots. Also, you can preview your pics instantly to avoid mistakes and make any necessary changes. You can also take many pics with a digital camera and just delete the ones you don't really care for. Then when you go to print them out, if they still aren't quite the way you expected, most developing places have different options to enhance your pics to get the best image possible!6) Don't forget to take pics of the back of your quilt, and any other distinguishing features you have done to it. If by chance it becomes lost or stolen, the more details and pics you have of your quilt, the easier it will be to identify and hopefully get it back to its rightful owner...YOU!
I am a brand new quilter as well. The best thing I've learned so far is that it's better to over pin something than under pin it! It's really annoying pulling out three feet of stitching because you didn't pin well enough. Don't ask me how I know.....Cassandra

In the first episode, Kaye talks about how she got started in the quilting industry.
I made this quilt as a gift for my husband's nephew's wedding in September 2011. I had seen the quilt made up in my LQS, and I fell in love with it at first sight. Fortunately, the fabrics were all on sale at the time! It came together quite quickly, and I had a local quilter do the quilting on her long-arm. It measures 50" square - just perfect for the newlyweds to snuggle under!

I've Learned....
Heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.You shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret, it could change your life forever.Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.Sometimes you have to put the individual ahead of their actions.Many things can be powered by the mind, the key is self-control
I am a beginner - The best thing I've learned is that pinning your pieces will help your quilt top to be neater than not pinning it. This may not be needed by experienced quilters though....Sarah
"Wild Flowers! Second Season", went missing after the Houston Quilt Festival closed, most likely on Monday, Nov. 7. I'm sure we can only imagine Sharon's heartbreak over losing this amazing prize winning quilt. The quilt is 62" x 64.5".
Perhaps if the quilting community reaches out through their contacts, the quilt can be recovered. If you have any information that might help in finding Sharon's quilt, relay the information to Sharon at her email address: firstname.lastname@example.com
