I believe it is time now to see this project expand massively.
Although hopefully a full-time manager will be employed eventually, much of the
project’s success will depend on the hard work of volunteers. The work will be
fun, however.
How can you help?
This is an e-zine and an annual publication that makes some
money for the project and pays an editor. We want to improve the circulation.
So we need more hits on the sites and more people buying the book – available as
a paperback or on Kindle. Anyone like to push that for us? On one
of our sites we have Google ads. On the other we would like to sell appropriate
advertising directly. Could you advertise with us? Do you know anyone else who
could? See our advertising rates.
And don’t forget to submit! See submission guidelines.
Finding more cafés
Oh, dear oh dear. It’s a hard life. That just might mean
trying out more cafés in your local area and deciding whether they are already
creative cafés
(see definition) or have the potential to become them. Even better if you can email admin@creativecafeproject.co.uk
with the copy for the web site.
Review a Creative Café
Write a review about a creative café or about a café that’s about
to join the Creative Café Project. We’ll post it on this blog and link it to
the café on the Creative Café web site. You can include a by-line and a link to
your own site(s).
Developing creative
cafés
This could mean helping a café to become a creative café or
help existing creative cafés become better ones.
Be a creative practitioner
at a creative café
See my previous blog post on Writers in Residence. Or, if
you are an artist could you arrange with the café to display and / or sell your
work? If you are a musician and the café has an entertainments license could you
busk there for a few hours? Sell your CDs? Give out leaflets?
Run a literary salon there
See details about this in this post on this blog.
Any other bright
ideas?
