What shall I do next?

I have been investigating new ways of making money online since my normal business of live performances and workshops has gone out of the window for the moment.

I have discovered that WordPress (who host this blog) allows you to get contributions from subscribers (monthly or annual) and that you can create subscriber only content.  You can also sell goods/services and collect donations through one off payments.

I am currently undecided as to what is best to do with these tools and wanted to get some feedback as to what my current readers would like to see me do next and what and how much you would be willing to pay for it.

We are now approaching the end of my maternity leave (February 2020) and so we are booking in dates for the coming year and beyond.  At present we are concentrating on our Shadow Puppet Suitcase Shows and Mad Hatter’s Tea Party Walkabout show.  We are also available for puppet making and performance workshops.

If you are interested in booking any of the other shows on our website please do get in touch as well.
