CONSUMED...

I have been working on my blog book, and it's taking over my life. It's so fun, and coming together nicely! Blurb, has been fixed so that it will actually "slurp" your whole blog, pictures, and posts into a book, and all you have to do is add the details, backgrounds, etc. It's relatively inexpensive, and a great way to keep track of your ramblings.

I'm so happy that blub is fixed! I didn't want to have to upload every picture like katie did. Oh, she might be mad when she reads this post. Love you! P.S. you should go to texas roadhouse it's really yummy! Are you going to mom's on sunday?

How does it work for blogspot blogs? I thought it wouldn't when I looked first - thanks!! I've been working on a photo book at Inkubook the past few days - so cute, and sooo time consuming as well! I'll have to tackle this next :)

I was wondering if it will Slurp things that you haven't published? Like, if I was to keep journaly/personal type things on my blog...but not publish them...but I would want to include them in the book. Would that work?

That is such a great idea! I have been cutting and pasting mine into a word document and was going to print it on my home computer, but it would use up all my ink. That is a great idea, I will have to check it out! You'll have to let me know how you like it when it is all finished!

Ann-Marie,

You can specify if you want it to slurp all of your posts, or just the ones that you published. So, in answer to your question, yes, you can slurp posts you didn't publish.

You can also add pages that weren't ever on your blog at all. You can pretty much customize it however you want to.

The best way to get started is to watch the tutorial on Blurb. I think it's called, "Getting Started". Just go to Blurb, and search tutorials within their site.

i love blurb! I just ordered my book that took me forever to make because it wasn't working and i was very impatient! And kelli i'm not mad! It sucked! I don't blame you for not wanting to do it. :) I'm glad that it is working for you, because i heard it wouldn't if you were private! Wahoo to blog books!!!
