Due to my overlapping work plan I am now recording the audio book and writing a short film at the same time. The short film, working title The Record Store Day Video, is coming along fairly easily but will need a few more locations than I first thought. Thankfully I still think I can film the whole thing over a maximum of two days. The next thing on my work plan is a six part podcast series to be written and recorded so I can do that at home, again it won’t be released until next year so I do have a bit of a time buffer if I need it. The stalemate regarding The Sunday Alternative video sessions might soon be at an end too, I have a meeting planned for next week so I just have to keep my fingers crossed. As for Saturday Breakfast, I am not sure if that will happen, at least not this year which is a bit of a pisser but it has at least given me the possibility of going further afield and doing it in a city that understands how I want to help the local music scene rather than be their enemy. A few of my plans for next year don’t involve Nottingham at all and others aren’t Nottingham-centric so can take place anywhere.

I’ve managed three audio book chapters today, which isn’t really a great headway as the book is like a time travel War and Peace that never seems like ending. At the moment I have several scenes written for The Record Store Day Video which I have cut up and intend to fit together in an order that suits, a bit like David Bowie’s cut-out words method of songwriting. Whether or not this works will remain to be seen.
