OK. On the Life-Changing Front:

Nov 10, 2014 13:00

Done yesterday:

set up BandCamp Page.
set up Patreon Page
put at least one thing up on both of those

So now the question is, "Where to go from here." Now, I'm lucky in that I have access to good computers and friends with loads of knowledge about things like recording and engineering and mastering and stuff like that ( Read more... )

muse, life, songwriting

Write for hire?
ARe you good in writing Music, in Notation, down? I have been looking for someone who could figure out music for compositions, wich I can do myself, but at snail Speed....so if you would offer this, I might wish to hire you.

Hm. I might have been once, but I wouldn't count it among my to-hand skills at this point. That said, I can offer pointers and software recommendations. My speed is also snail-like, though: we would be like two turtles racing against a duck! ;)

OH, software I have, I like "iwritemusic" on the ipad a lot. And I a getting better at this. It jsut came to my mind, what I would hire People for...and could well be done at distance.

write for hire..... my sister was looking at freelance copy-writing from home. I have no idea what's involved or what the market's like, but if she was taking it seriously then it's probably worth a look.

Do you take (Bandcamp) requests? weebleflip November 10 2014, 20:54:53 UTC

I just enjoyed Sugar from the Moon (which I hadn't heard before), and I was wondering if you could put up a version of your Shadowrun song.... I helpfully can't remember the title... "...when you run in the shadows, there's comfort in hell"....at some point...?

That was one of the first songs I heard you do, and I was spellbound.

*hugs*

If I can find a live version of "Last Run," I'll put it up. I might very well have one. I certainly will if the fellow who recorded my set at FilkContinental can put his hands on the right stuff for me. And then, you shall have it. :)

The song is called "Last Run".

Hmm, I thought I had replied to this from my phone, but LJ/my phone seems to have eaten it!

Take 2:

Yeyyy! (technical term, that), and fingers crossed for finding it :)

"last run" and it is on this CD!

Hmmm.... I have that CD ...Somewhere! Must be one I lent to The Tall One, which probably means it is packed in his moving house boxes now.

Nonetheless, I would be very interested in a live recording, too :)

I think you could really rock the Patreon thing! I love that the offers are things like "get coffee when I'm in your city" - it plays into the huge friend/fan crossover that you have (the joy of folk - we all think everyone else is our friend! So fluffy!!!).

I'm always curious as to how much people take up the "sonnets for hire" kind of thing. I judge everyone's offers by whether I'd take them up myself, and have always been a little unsure on the poetry thing, but I am very far from being the majority, so would be interested :-) Also the "membership to a private FB group" seems easy, but highly desirable (the best combination!).

Love the control and oomph you have!
