I twisted up my ankle pretty bad a few weeks ago. It was so slow to heal I went to two bone doctors, one said it was a hairline fracture and I needed a cast. The other said it was just a grade two sprain and all I need to do is wear a brace for the next two weeks. It kinda sucks and I think I made things worse by stomping about on my ankle when it first happened, ignoring the pain. Oh well. That combined with some family issues has me delaying the soft opening of Texture to July 18th. It’s still gonna rock! There is just still so much to do and I don’t want to be hobbling around trying to get everything ready, and not being able to be up and about like I want to.
I have no idea where to start so I start here! Help, advise or warnings about opening a bookstore for german books in the lovely english city of Oxford (since I am native German and Germans beeing the biggest non-english student community in Oxford) is heartly appreciated!
m!
For a long time, I have dreamed of owning and operating my own little dusty bookstore…I live in a little town, and the bookstores here are few and far between. I think it would do well in my area, but sadly :( I am lost on how to get started…
Any ideas, or help would be greatly appreciated :)
Don’t know much about opening my own business, but just love books and have been dreaming about having my own cosy bookstore for all my life!

“How do I start buying books? Do I go direct to publishers? Will they entertain someone who probably only wants to start with 10 copies of about 200 titles?”
