I followed you home, and knocked at your door

"Share your pledge on Twitter", they say. "Share your pledge on Facebook!"

I asks you.

However, it is well within my power to share my pledge on LiveJournal, like it's 2004. Except I don't think we had crowdfunding much in 2004.

Anyway: I just pledged to Your Art is Worthless by Simon Indelicate on Unbound!

The exclamation mark is a serving suggestion from Unbound. I'm not sure the sentence really merited one, myself.

Yes, yes, you all know about the Indelicates, I've been telling you about them since, well, probably about 2004 as well. And now one of them is writing a book, about the economics of selling your art in this modern age and I honestly think it sounds quite interesting anyway. I've heard Simon Indelicate speak, I've read his writing, and consider him both articulate and entertaining. I don't know much about his grasp of economics, but he's been living on the pointy end of consumer interest in his art long enough that I'd guess he's worked quite a bit of it out.

Go on, watch the pitch video and see what you think: https://unbound.co.uk/books/your-art-is-worthless

Are you going to the gig on the 30th? I feel like I should give them a try at some point.

I am not, due to somehow having missed that there was one. It doesn't seem to be on their gigs page - although I fear I have also committed to do something else that day so unless that falls through, still no :(

If it's a full band gig, rather than just the two of them, I'd definitely recommend it though.

Support from a Kenickie covers band and a gender-swapped Sisters of Mercy cover band, both of which are bonkers enough to make me want to see them.

Misters of Circe? They have the best name :-)
