The idea of this project has grown so much, and at times that's been really scary, and I've felt that I'm going to be found out in some way for who I really am. But mostly I feel really confident and proud about what I'm doing and feel empowered by how I'm bringing it all together.<br /><br />The project is definitely happening by the way, it's just the scale of it, that will be determined by the funding. The exhibition is being advertised by Fife Council and I'm starting to walk round with a permanent bubble of excitement inside me!<br /><br />JenniI Love Scolawihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06300041582891949883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7385547782067844136.post-62994749145834872362014-03-09T08:13:38.220-07:002014-03-09T08:13:38.220-07:00It certainly makes sense now you have explained it...It certainly makes sense now you have explained it Jenni, you are certainly a very determined lady and I can't wait to see the whole project come together which I am sure it will!<br /><br />AlisonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05855576979128241767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7385547782067844136.post-58069377032698564012014-03-06T06:34:32.874-08:002014-03-06T06:34:32.874-08:00Thanks for your comment Alison.

I still don't know if I'm going to receive any grant funding, and there isn't much news except that I'm beavering away planning things behind the scenes. <br /><br />I'm planning to crowdfund for the exhibition costs for the community side of the project, and at that point I'm going to push the publicity as much as I can. I've decided the best time to do this is straight after I come back from Malawi in June, when I'll be teaching lots of workshops and trying to get people involved. <br /><br />In the next couple of months I'm going to learn as much as I can about creating a large media buzz. But before then, I want to get practised in writing blogs and posting on twitter/FB without too many people watching me. <br /><br />hope this all makes sense<br /><br />JenniI Love Scolawihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06300041582891949883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7385547782067844136.post-53441570967835509842014-03-06T03:42:12.183-08:002014-03-06T03:42:12.183-08:00I think you are doing a wonderful job so far but h...I think you are doing a wonderful job so far but how much publicity are you getting? There do not seem to be many people following you on-line. Is there a newspaper who will publish your story, with updates when you reach milestones?<br />I think your project is worth letting the whole of Scotland know about. How about the Daily Record for example, Scotland's most read newspaper? Just a thought or maybe you have already made publicity plans.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05855576979128241767noreply@blogger.com
