vg15. Learning Update: Autumn Quarterly. by Kathy Fabian

On Line:

For this quarterly I am going to be listening to two kinds of learning material: podcasts and videos.  I like to do this while I am doing routine work like filing.  Since I am doing a lot of filing I will be doing a lot of listening.

I am going to keep the informative emails down to a minimum and emphasize websites and mostly youtube subscriptions.  that is the most convenient.  When I have the time I can just go to one site. Also I will continue glancing at my ipod podcasts to see what's new.

One thing the emails are good for are notifying me of webinars.  If and when there is an intersting subject I will take one or two from time to time.  I like the webinars that are live but also recorded as well.

I also want to start looking at other artists websites to see what they are doing and how much they charge.  I will be looking at the top artists as well as those who might be directly competitive with myself.

I have finished my Lean Start up course with Udacity and am interested in another course but perhaps that will wait until after the holiday season and the new quarterly.

Real World

I will going out in the community to learn about prices for things like shipping and packaging so that I can come up with a good set of prices for my work.

The Financial Challenge

As per usual I will be not spending money on internet packages but will just pay for my monthly subscription to Bell.  This means that much of the hands on making money information will not be for me but will be saved for buyers.

One challenge that remains is to start earning an income.  Many of the tapes I listen to talk about quality of life and refining the product.  I will continue my search for hands on tips to increase or even start revenues.  Also I will be looking for budgeting advice.

What remains to be done:

I will keep my eyes out for a mentor but I think I need to go to more webinars to communicate my concepts more thoroughly

I also have to contact InfoEntrepreneur to see if there are any fees or memberships that I still have to pay.

Bieber; Under the Mistletoe

Well the laundry's done. I have two pairs of kicky pajama bottoms waiting to be worn now. We are talking pink leopard and monkeys on a purple background. The dishwasher is out for a couple of days now and we have been eating on paper plates so I am going to look for a nice place to have my lunch today. I have a selection of three restos in mine: French, Brazilian and a coffee with a winning menu.  After that, I am going to go pick up a couple of pastries for tonight and f or Christmas morning. Talking about the French resto, they have some beautiful, decorative pastries. I only hope they are open. Meanwhile, this being the 24th I am going to go back to bed for a bit before I get dressed to search our sustenance.  Meanwhile, why not pick up some Christmas images from Bieber. By the way, what does shawty mean? He says that a lot in the song.

The Before Poster Series

Before posters   The arts in a poor community   When I moved into the downtown sector the plateau Montreal was a very poor community   Although the community was very poor it was densely populated. There were a lot of dry goods establishments mixed with a fair amount of family tolerated prostitution. The police sergeant had taken it upon himself to clean up the area so there were a lot of sponsored artistic establishments Mostly beginning dressmakers. These were young designers that needed a lot of cheap space and fast and they were willing and able to physically fight for their career.  They had many ethnic grocery stores that promoted regional fruits and vegetables  four different kinds of cooking needs. You had Portuguese you had English you had Chinese etc. These culturally diverse grocery stores exist to this very day. You also had a lot of temporary space that could be rented very cheaply for performance. It is from these performances can I tak...

Birthday Itinerary on the LIke-a-thon

And what am I going to do today? I am glad you asked. First thing I am going to have breakfast at the wonderfully designed new restaurant down the street. I dare not tell you the name because I want to have a place. If I told you well then you might be one of the multitude of fans that take the tables instead of me. So, in to the shower and then I am off to the races. (did you join my event) What? Not yet? Well now's the time.
