Hello! Ok, so I wasn't sure about setting this up. I'm self employed and I charge for chargeable work. My chargeable work includes writing for publications, judging at spirits awards, writing content, organising conferences, consulting, all sorts of stuff. However, I also do a lot of things for the sheer love of it, writing on spirits for my blog, social posts, giving advice etc, and think this would be a nice option just in case someone did want to say thank you in this sort of way. Or, maybe you just like reading my work which isn't monetised. Money aside, it would be nice to build a network of supporters and have that contact, and here may well be the place to do it.
I like to explore new options and learn new things. And I'm wondering if perhaps I can look at adding certain content to here too. Maybe this is a whole new platform to enjoy doing what I do. I love learning about spirits and I love sharing that knowledge with people. I may start looking at some sort of content available just through here, maybe for a membership? But that's definitely a work in progress and an idea for down the line. Learn to walk before I can run and all that jazz.
