I remember your first course with text and photos and I have to say the format worked really well for me and I am glad I signed up.

Personally I only published ebooks for now (and a domestika course outside of my control), and a good thing about them is once they’re out they’re out and I can’t change anything. Lack of choice takes off the pressure. But I can see how a recurring course would be different.

Anyways, I always admire makers and artists with video skills, I can’t seem to force myself to learn it.

I'm really glad you enjoyed the old course format! I'm actually thinking of re-releasing it as an eBook at some point in the future. I started filming because I was getting so many requests for video, and it really does open up more possibilities. On the other hand, it's incredibly time consuming and I'm really glad to be taking a break!

I just have to say, as a new weaver, I had many options for a first "proper" class. I chose yours for a variety of reasons and I'm so glad I did! Your course offered me such a welcoming place to learn and grow and I know I will revisit the lessons as I progress because, with more experience, I will see things I didn't before, deepening my learning. So, I hope you discover that what you're doing IS working and the economics further reinforce this.

Thanks for your comment Ellen, and for such lovely feedback on the course! I'm currently working on a paid subscriber post for this Friday which will look into the economics of what's working and what isn't, so keep an eye out for that. Regardless, I think online courses will always be a part of what I offer, even if they won't be the whole thing!
