Things were really busy and I vanished for a while, then they slowed down, which is kind of a drag, really. Stand Alone Media is an actual thing, at this point. (Some small proof here.) Katie and Kaelan have done two videos, but they were on the house to build a profile. Getting people to buy commercials isn't particularly easy, and businesses can take a while to get started, so I recommended branching out into areas that the general public would be interested in. So, we're doing things like cleaning up old VHS tapes and putting them on DVDs in high-def and video/photo shoots for cosplayers or people interested in sending high quality videos to people around the holidays (if they're not able to make it to gatherings or just along with gifts).
No takers, yet, but it's not like I've stopped looking for work.
That's particularly frustrating, because I haven't gotten so much as a callback for an interview for a minimum wage retail job, yet. My milquetoast descriptions of what I can do and who I used to work for have gotten progressively more human because, well, nothing else has really worked, yet. I've gotten lots of advice from people, and two people rarely say the same thing, so I'm beginning to assume they're mostly talking out of their ass. I mean, well-meaning and pleasant ass-talking, but ass-talking nonetheless.
I don't think that the majority of the people that read this journal are in the area, but if you are, and you'd like some tapes or DVDs put into high-def, or you want some video of you or your friends doing stuff, our rates are very reasonable right now. So, that may be the first and last time I've shilled like that on my journal, but there it is.
I was prepping some NPCs for a potential future game of Exalted (I'm waiting to see if I can make the larger plot come together in a way I like) and realized that it's really very tough to get a level of rough competency in the way I'd like over even large spans of time, so I might talk about that today or tomorrow if I can get my shit together.
