Now that school is back in session, yours portly isn’t making it out to open mic night much, so I’m doing what I do best: mining the rich veins of my old, neglected works.
This week I’d like to share “Minuet for a New Moon,” which I composed on 9 February 2022 as part of Péchés d’âge moyen, the highly unpopular collection of lo-fi solo piano pieces I released largely as part of an inside Internet joke.
Just in time for Labor Day Weekend the waning days of summer, Bandcamp Friday is back! The first Fridays of September, October, November, and December 2022 will see the return of this pro-indie music observance, a day on which Bandcamp waives its usual 15% commission on sales.
In other words, when you buy my music, almost 100% of it goes to me, instead of almost 85%.
While I haven’t released any new music lately, I managed to release two short collections of music in April—Péchés d’âge moyen II: One Week in March and The Lo-Fi Hymnal II. All of my releases are just a buck each, though you’re welcome to pay more if you’d like to help out yours portly.
Currently, my entire discography of ten releases is $6.50, a savings of 35%, which is not bad for ten releases. That’s $0.65 per release—not too shabby! To purchase the full discography, click on any release, and you’ll see the option to purchase all of them.
I’m also selling all of my paintings for $10, with free shipping in the United States, regardless of how many you purchase. They’re one of kind, so once a painting is purchased, it’s gone.
Finally, my book The One-Minute Mysteries of Inspector Gerard: The Ultimate Flatfoot is $9.80 in paperback, and I think the Kindle version in the United Kingdom is on sale this weekend (I think; I can’t figure out how to check that promotion again—d’oh!). If it is, it’s just £1!
Well, that’s it for this month’s sales pitch. Thanks again for your support!
Happy Friday!

It’s another Bandcamp Friday, so I’m taking a break from supporting friends to hawking my own goodies.
I managed to release two short collections of music in April—Péchés d’âge moyen II: One Week in March and The Lo-Fi Hymnal II. The Lo-Fi Hymnal II is totally free, though you’re welcome to pay more if you’d like to help out yours portly.
Currently, my entire discography is $26.48, which is not bad for ten releases. That’s $2.65 per release—not too shabby! To purchase the full discography, click on any release, and you’ll see the option to purchase all of them.
I’ve also been painting a ton of little pictures. I’m selling all of my paintings for $10, with free shipping in the United States, regardless of how many you purchase. They’re one of kind, so once a painting is purchased, it’s gone.
I’ve done two landscapes recently that I really like—“Windy Nightfall” and “Playing in the Graveyard.” I think the former is the better painting, but the latter is a bit more fun. You can judge for yourself:
Well, that’s it for this month’s sales pitch. Thanks again for your support!
Happy Friday!
