Determined to have a
place in East Harlem for books, authors and the community to come together - I
began my adventure to open La Casa Azul in the Spring of 2006. For 5 years I have
immersed myself in the book industry world. I have visited every bookstore
possible, spoken to publishers, authors and bookstore owners.
There have been many
highlights and some challenges. Several times I felt like walking away - but
giving up felt worse than moving forward.
As I prepare to open
La Casa Azul Bookstore, I look forward to many amazing experiences. I know that
challenges will arise - but I am sure I won't regret a single part of this
adventure.
Thank you for
believing in me, La Casa Azul Bookstore will finally have a home.
