Where I'm coming from

Welcome to Doll of the Week. I have been writing a blog on myspace.com for about six months, writing about a different doll each week. But myspace is slow and tedious, so I have decided to move the blog here.

The dolls I photograph and write about are all my own. Sometimes they are from my collection, sometimes they are dolls that I am selling or have sold. With the latter, I often find that when I photograph a doll to sell, she (or he) will start to fire my imagination, or my curiosity. By taking the photo and writing about them, I have something to keep, without having hundreds of dolls taking over the house.

I like dolls a lot, but then I'm not as obsessive as some. I'm interested in dolls, but then I'm not an expert. I write about a wide variety of dolls, but then there are some dolls I just can't stand. (This means you, Cabbage Patch Kids!) I try to make it fun, but then you may not think so!

To give you a taste of what it's about, I'm going to start this blog with a few posts copied over from my old myspace blog. I'll start the all-new blog in January. So apologies to myspace readers.

Hope you enjoy.
