My last salary deposit into my bank was exactly one month ago; an amount of $100.16. For a month I have been living off that $100 (and sixteen cents, don't forget the sixteen cents), and whatever I happen to make selling scarves at markets. I do a lot of stuff for free. I do it because I love to do it, and because I hate to be doing nothing, and I wouldn't ever stop doing things for free. Unforunately, doing stuff for free doesn't make my $100 (and sixteen cents) magically double or even treble in size.
So here I am, putting out a call for help.
Do any of you valiant and hard working blog readers need someone with the kind of awesomely-amazing-super-hero-esque-multi-skillz that I am possessed with? Or know of anyone who does? I am incredibly versatile. In fact, if I were a super hero my alter ego would surely be named Versatila.
I really can do lots of things. And I'm good at them too.
I can design you stuff. Like posters, or websites, or business cards, or even t-shirts. And I could even print the t-shirts too. Or show you how to print them yourself. I can lay things out, I can take and retouch photos, I can prepare things for print and publish them on the web.
I could sing you something. Even an advertsing jingle. Really, I could.
I could write for you. Anything. Me write good. Real good. Scripts. Articles. Interview. Reviews. Stories. Bios. Brochures. If you want to see an example of my real good writing, because me write real good, email me and I'll give you a link to a secret.
I could lend my manual labour and skills with my hands to construct you something. Help you on a set. Help you sew stuff. Help you put something together.
I could teach. I have lots of experience teaching. Crafts, knitting, screen printing, even dancing and movement classes for kids. Or I could just babysit.
And if all else fails I'm great with customers and, unlike most salespeople, actually enjoy working in retail.
See, multi-skillz. I'd be the most versatile person you ever found.
If you don't really need my skillz, but can give me some advice on how to find people who do, email me. I've got no idea what the hell I'm doing, or where the hell I'm supposed to be looking, so maybe you can help.
One of my many skills will be on display tomorrow night too. My band are playing at The Brunswick Hotel again, and it's going to be a big night.
Another one of my many skills has gone on display. The fun and fabulous market I attend on Wednesday nights to sell my knitted wares now has a website. Go and check it out, and come down to Section 8. It's a really kooky bar, with lovely staff. Perhaps we can meet up and you can talk to me and my skillz about how we can serve your requirements.
