Title: Looking for a vendor from TRF..
Post by: xed on April 09, 2012, 08:57:47 PM
So I'd really like to find out if there's a way to get in touch with whoever it is who sells the blank books at TRF...or something similar, if anyone has any leads.  If I remember correctly, there were variations on leather- and wooden-bound books, scrolls, etc.  Maybe the same shop that had the calligraphy supplies?

I've been needing a nice tome to keep my brewing recipes in, and I'd really like to see if it's possible to get something like this in the off-season. 

Every year, I stop by the shop and nose about, wishing I had a use for an empty book.  And then, every year, Spring rolls around and I crack open the mead closet and blow the dust off the carboys only to search frantically for the tiny scraps of paper on which I've jotted my notes, thinking "If only I had a blank book that I could easily identify on my bookshelf!"

...I am ashamed that it took this long to put together.

Try email and see if you can pre-order.  They may do that.

I really do want to go to Scarby, and I'm making an effort to be there on the last weekend, but I'm really not sure.  I've never been, and I've got a hiatus coming up at work, so let's see what happens...
