Yesterday I saw a bumper sticker that said “OUTLAW FI****MS AND I BECOME AN OUTLAW”. After saying it in my big scary cowboy voice, it inspired me….

Which outlaw are you? 🤠

Here is a long post about how I am struggling to be the face of my own business & how I hope to get the f*ck over it.

Last night I was having a conversation with my boyfriend about how I need to post more frequently, but I’m no photographer and sharing images of my books feels like sharing the same photos over and over. I also mentioned how I need to post myself to offer a more personal perspective, but it always feels like such a chore to make sure the make up is done, the hair is cute, then try to capture a picture. His simple solution was to “just not do all that”. Perhaps an obvious solution as well, but it’s hard to shamelessly show up on a social media platform. BUT I’m a full time mom trying to start a small business & I simply haven’t got the room for “stage your life” on my to-do list.

So, here is me, shamelessly….well an attempt to be (there’s a drop of shame). It’s nearly lunchtime & I’m still in my nighties. I’ve got cabbage stuffed down my top because the internet told me it will help dry up my milk supply. My room needs a day of dedication, but today will not be that day. Postpartum baby hairs on full display (as if I could do anything about them anyway). If you could see the leg hair….you don’t want to see the leg hair.

So here I stand, on both fuzzy legs, the face of a business I run on my own while also keeping 2 kids and the romance in my relationship alive. I am woman, watch me do it all. Some days better than others. Another glimpse at the Mack behind the stack…just from a different angle & with a new goal: post it all! The good, the bad & definitely the bookish. ✌️

The Mack behind the stack!

I started my small business venture this past September in a state I knew only 2 people. I had no clue how it would go & if people would even take interest in my product. As a SAHM I knew I wanted 4 things from this experience:
• an income (obv).
• an excuse to buy more books (also obv. I mean c’mon, “we are readers, of course we are going to break our book buying ban”).
• A way to share new reads in a fun way.
• A way to make some damn friends.

While I’ve still got a lot of growing to do, I owe so much thanks to a few other local ladies who are not only hustling their own small businesses, but helping other little locals like me grow along side them. So, here’s to for offering me a collaboration with her & her insanely cool business venture. A bookstore on wheels?! I’m not sure anyone could be cooler. Also, to who hosted me at their markets, shared my products & is all around a super supporter of local businesses! Here’s your official nomination!! And to for finding me, taking this very photo of me & inviting me to be a part of one of the awesome events she organizes, markets & hosts HERSELF!!

So, cheers to all who have supported me & other small businesses already this year!!

With love,
Your Paperback Papi 💜

Good morning & HAPPY FRIKIN FRIDAY!

For those of you new to the page, I just want to drop a “quick” blurb about who I am and what I do! Feel free to ask any questions.

To start:

Hi, I’m Mack & I’m addicted to buy/reading books. A few months ago one of our book shelves couldn’t bear the weight of my addiction and plunged itself from the wall. This got me thinking “how I could share the fun and fulfillment I get from these books while also avoiding turning my house into a labyrinth of book stacks?” And well, this was my solution! I decided to package previously loved books as Blind Dates for my fellow book fans/hoarders.

How does all of this work, you ask? Well a couple ways! I sporadically post on social media books that I have already packaged and ready to meet a ”mate”. If you see a date that you think you may fancy, just shoot me a message to claim it! Looking for something more specific and not willing to wait for your next read to pop up randomly in your feed? Send me a PM and I can build a custom date for you!

Now, all this said, I also love children’s books ( I’m a mother of 2 and the oldest of 7, not just a weirdo reading Amelia Bedelia before bed for fun) so I also offer Play Dates for the littles!

“What does my date bring to the table?” Each Date is packaged with stickers and tea (or hot chocolate, because TIS THE SEASON).

To wrap it all up, thank you for finding my page and supporting and whichever ways you choose!
