Listen to Abby on the Straight From The Drafts podcast!
Posted on April 24 2026
A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of talking to podcast host (and excellent pal) Nao, for an episode of Straight From The Drafts!
We talked about the journey to opening the bookshop and staying resilient during all of the setbacks, but also the huge impact that community had on the entire process. From the Kickstarter, to painting the walls and showing up on opening weekend.
It was a really gorgeous chat as Nao knows both me and Paper and Word, so knew exactly the right questions to ask!
It does get a little emotional, so grab some tissues and a cuppa to tuck in.
