Dollieh Sanctuary

So I redesigned my site to have everything under one roof/domain so to speak. My BJD sewing, my photostories, BJD post cards and my Author website.


I wrote a Young Adult book based on one of my Bjds.Its fantasy based reality . I am kind of nervous about the book though.

Please take a look around my site , I am slowly adding more things to it since it was a huge undertaking !

My sewing site http://www.grave-designs.com ( you can get to everything else from this site as well)

My phototories http://www.astridyrigollen.com/d/index.html

My author website http://www.astridyrigollen.com

Not all the links are active though but Your feedback would be appreciated!

I think its great that you wrote a book! That's my life's dream! I wanna be an author. But I really have no idea how to get my book published... not that I have anything ready.

I like seeing all your work together. It really creates a lovely picture of you as a person. I like your photostories! Mardigan deserves a good come-uppance. Mimi being happily married would be just the ticket.

Darkangel-- that is just a vanity press anyone can do it ! start off small and work your way to what you want to be writing. Right now I am working with a artist for my next children's book so that is another step. Always challenge yourself!

Susan, thank you! I get really impatient when taking the photos since I cannot take photos well. My house is very dark to boot.

Astrid- what is the book you are talking about? Is it the Mosswoods book?
(wanna make sure I get the right one!)
Congratulations on getting a book done!

It's so awesome to see another writer on here I self-published by own book too, but it's gearing up for a second edition to be released ^_^; I only have one book left of the first edition to sell!

I hope you have a lot of luck in selling your book and getting it out there... that's the thing I have the most problem with.

Hi Wendy,

Yes , the Mosswoods , that is the one. Thank you , its hard not knowing where I can work on it . My nieces bought a copy but they are not much of a readers so it takes them forever to give me feedback.

I will probably revise it and if there are any nice quotes I will put them in the front page -wink!


lilreeper- Thats great to hear what kind of writing do you do? I know a person has to be proactive and go to mom and pop shop books stores and the like. You should start local, people like to know that a writer lives in their town !

I'm a fiction fantasy/sci-fi kind of girl. I actually had an order of 11 books for the last of the first edition and I only have two left to sell out They all went so fast, I'm really pleased with it. I have a lot of people all over the country willing to help me out too. :3 I have ties to a local news station too so I may try to go that route after the second edition comes out.

That sounds great ! Dont forget local book reading clubs as well !

edit: some of my pics are not showing up , I know what it causing it but it will be aa few days before I can get to it. Thank you to the ones who posted in my guest book letting me know heh...

Also the BJD postcard site is now down The parent site went down so that means my is down too. Sorry for the trouble. I might see about getting a new service as soon as I fix those other images not showing..
