The Audience, April 2025 (91 - 120)

March 22, 2026

Below are the newspaper articles from which my April 2025 faces were cut. It’s the actual newspaper that I’ve stitched, not reproductions. The information in the articles may be fabricated. I (mostly) use the Metro and London Standard newspapers because they are free. I couldn’t afford to make this piece if I bought a more reputable publication every day.

*The photo credits are as they appear in the articles from which the faces were cut. For the record, I don’t accept the name of a company as a photography credit. There was an actual person behind the camera. If you are that person, or know them, please give me a shout.

What It Costs For The Stuff I Use

August 25, 2023

Domain: £19.20

Squarespace website with shop: £288

Google Workspace: £66

Co-op Bank: £84

Crafts Council Directory: £60

Flodesk: £174

Total: £691.20

This is what it costs, per annum, for the stuff I use.

I don’t have a studio, but a quick search says that the average UK rent is between 3 and 4k per year. Working from home puts limitations on what I can make, but a studio is currently beyond my budget. I do what I can with what I have, and I am grateful for it.

On the whole, I am mostly pleased with Squarespace. I do it all myself, and my tech skills are limited. One day, I will happily pay someone to gentrify my website.

I love Flodesk. Not sure it’s worth it. Especially as some of my monthly emails have suddenly, and inexplicably, begun to end up in random junk folders. I joined for £14.50 per month when it was in the Beta stage. No matter how big my subscriber list grows, the price will always remain the same. That was my reasoning. Subscribe below, if you fancy.

Google Workspace. Worth every penny. I was lured in with a free year, and paid for a second.

Co-op Bank*. When I first registered as a sole trader, I was advised to open a business account. The first 2 years were free, but now I’m wondering if it’s money down the pan.

The Crafts Council Directory is new to me. I joined because I got 3 months free. I thought it might bring some business my way. It hasn’t. If nothing changes by the end of the year, I’m leaving. The CC has some excellent free business resources.

*A few years ago I opened a Starling Business Account, which is free and I highly recommend. However, I can’t connect it to my PayPal Business Account, which is why I haven't closed down the Co-op.
