I swerved doing any proper work in my office today as the time had finally come to tidy the mess that has accumulated. It isn't proper mess, it's all things that need putting away properly in various files and folders. Rather than shelves in my office I have archive boxes filled with lever arch files relating to specific projects, another box is full of discs of my radio shows, podcasts, interviews and the like, there's boxes containing financial paperwork and other such random boxes that house magazines, newspaper clippings, letters and so on. 

This coincided with starting my to-do list for next year and once again consulting with my box of abandoned ideas. I have been stalled this year due to funding issues and lack of time, so next year we all have to pull together and work harder regarding our respective sides of the bargain. I will continue to provide a weekly new music podcast, a daily blog, regular acoustic music videos and a brand new monthly podcast, and in return for my generosity it would be nice if you showed some generosity in return and enabled me to undertake some more ambitious projects such as documentaries, comedy sketches, films, and various other endeavours. 

With some of the projects I am thinking of trying to find a non-interfering sponsor, in particular The Random Saturday Sessions as although they aren't massively expensive to make, I can't make them for nothing. If both of the audio podcasts, The Sunday Alternative and The Random Saturday Sessions, could find either a semi-permanent sponsor who would pay for a couple of mentions at non-intrusive point during the podcast then I could put that money back in to producing the videos and hopefully eventually be able to afford to get my teeth into some of the more ambitious projects.

This is a serious call out, if you have something to plug then get in touch, my email address is steveEoliver@gmail.com and I'd be happy to discuss this in finer detail with the right person.

Thank you in advance for donating using the PayPal button at the top of this page. It all goes towards creating podcasts, sketches, documentaries, films and more, all of which I will make available for free in return for your generosity.
