| What is the best advice you have received from a fellow shopkeeper about your shops or designs you would like to pass on to another shopkeeper? * | "Spend 80% of your time advertising and 20% designing . "Though I love much more designing and I do not keep this so strict . After all I should improve as an artist as well .But sometimes when I feel down because of the slow sales then I start advertising intensively .And when sales are coming then I am inspired to create again .The other useful thing that I learned that I should not be invisible . Creating silently and not speaking about it is a mistake .I am trying my best to be present at the zazzle forums and showing my art and gaining inspiration by the art of others . |

| What did you do with your free time before zazzle or other POD's....and what do you do with it now? * | I used to design for fun .I love reading and interested in the origin of languages , cooking , sufism , literature , hiking ,yoga , swimming .I keep my camera with me and take photos while we go out . I live in Qatar by the sea . I often take landscape photos and food photos while we are out . I used to do a lots of drawing portraits just for myself . I am interested in the human soul and found it very exciting spiritually to draw faces . |
