Blurb blog book is finished

The book was suppose to arrive mid March but ended up on my door step in just 5 short days.  I didn't even opt in for the express shipping.  Fantastic!

The quality of the book is superb.  I went to the middle grade gloss paper for the content of the book and I am really happy with the quality.  It is exactly like any of my other coffee table books.


Here is a photo of Tegan with the keepsake book of our trip to New Zealand.  There are still a couple of typos to fix in the photo descriptions, but overall the book is 10/10!

My plan is to get another book published and then giving it to Tegan so she can keep it forever with her.

I highly recommend Blurb for publishing blogger blogs.  You will have to do a bit of tweaking, but it is WYSIWYG, so make sure you are happy with the look of it prior to printing it.  The total cost was $148.99 for the book, but I used a coupon code I found online and my final cost was $142.42 including the shipping.

Creating a Blurb blog book

I just spent the last 4 days working on the creation of a book from the content of this blog.  It was a fairly straight forward process.  I did freshen up all the photos and added a few new ones as well as running all the text through spell check.  I am looking forward to having the printed copy in hand.  So, far I am recommending the Blurb publishing website and program.  I will let you know if my money was wisely spent and I have a keepsake as I that is what I wanted to create.
