I received a couple of e-mails from my Tagalog book list e-mail asking how can they avail of "my pocketbooks". I'm giving emphasis to the phrase "my pocketbooks" because that was how the person who e-mailed me, referred to the book titles I've posted on my booklist.
At first, I thought she was inquiring about where I bought the books so I replied to her e-mail saying my Dad had bought them from Manila for me and I also gave her links and phone numbers to publishers of the pocketbooks so the she can inquired about them herself, thinking she might be someone like me who lives here in the US or some other foreign country.
But when she replied back, she said she thought I was posting them to put them up for sale. She said she's interested in buying 8-10 titles from my so far, modest list. I clarified that I wasn't selling any of the books, I was just merely keeping track of my books.
Even though it was just a mistake, I wonder if it was a good thing or bad? I think my book blog is literally sending a wrong impression to visitors who happen to just stumbled upon my site. According to my blog visitor counter, my blog had 157 visitors just for today! How did that happen? My book blog is supposed to be private, and only my friends know of it's URL address.
Oh well, at least there are people took a peek on my book blog....
I'm still in the process of the scanning the rest of the book covers for the titles I've posted on my book blog. The covers are slowly getting on there, give it a couple more days and I'll be able to catch up.
