Tammy Powley’s Crafty Weblog

Creative Publishing’s New Web Site

| 4 Comments


Woot! Creative Publishing International, the publisher of my latest book, The Complete Photo Guide to Jewelry Making (set to come out this December or January), has a new web site, and it is full of amazing book information. The site is called Qbookshop.com and is a portal to the various companies that are under the same publishing umbrella: Creative Publishing International, Quarry Books, Fair Winds Press, Motorbooks, MVP Books, Quiver, Rockport Publishers, and a number of others.

One of the extra cool touches to this site is that you’ll find videos embedded in it. Of course, I went right to the Crafts & Hobbies link first, and I was very pleased to discover a video that describes a new book, Sew Retro. This is definitely going on my book wish list, and I can think of a few people that this would be a great gift for as well. Along with videos, there is an RSS news feed from various crafting blogs.

This site covers lots of other topics, but it is full of craft and hobby information too. So it’s a must-visit site.

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.

  1. Dear Tammy…what a wonderful post about our new online bookshop! Thank you so much!
    All best,
    Mary

  2. I’m glad you like it. Wonderful idea to have such a robust site.

  3. I am so excited for this book to come out, waiting with baited breath and all that! I didn’t realize that all those companies were connected, but the new site makes it so much easier to search for the quality books I love.

  4. How wonderful! I am impressed by QBooks.com too and went right to Arts and Crafts like you. They have a great selection.

    One think though, that moving slideshow on the top is going so fast, it made me dizzy. lol. I wonder if they could slow it down. It’s a cool feature but I wouldn’t want to watch it on a full stomach.
