Getting Tricked by the Business

Hello, twisted friends!

Can I get a shout from all of you creative types who just can't get the hang of managing your business?   I need to take a remedial class, I think.  I'm accepting suggestions.  Truly.
I have to do something besides just play with pretty yarn?

I got pretty excited about recording some crochet tutorials this summer!  I had a whole plan.  They were going to be geared toward kids, I was going to have my daughter with me in them.
Not pictured: myself or my daughter

You're reading the past tense.  You can see where this is going.  It wasn't that my daughter wasn't as starry-eyed about it as I thought she'd be, although if the plan had gotten that far, I'm sure we would've reached that revelation, as well.  

No, as it turns out, video recording equipment isn't all up to the task of recording a tutorial.

And all of YouTube said...
So, unless I want to drop some dollahs on a better camera, that's on hold.  I guess that will give me time to work on my level of comfort on camera.

I hope you're all having a lovely summer, and doing something that keeps the madness at bay.  I'm about to start an order for Troll hats, and I'm working on a shirt for myself.

Until next time!
