Fishwick Papers: The "Change Dayses!" edition

Happy Friday! Thursday!Sorry, old habits die hard. As I mentioned last week, I've dropped down to four days a week at ACMI, so I can't reliably send Fishwick Papers on Fridays anymore. This is partly so I can spend a little more time on my extra-curricular theatre projects, but also my fiancée has scored an awesome job in New Zealand, and ACMI have been very supportive and allowing me to travel over to visit every so often.Last week I put out a survey (still open here, if you're interested!) to work out a different release day for Fishick Paprs (we've rebranded, we're a tech startup now). The majority of people (60%) voted for 'I don't mind', followed by a 20% vote for Thursday. So here we are! There was also a comment box, in which I received (among the really nice feedback, thank you all you're lovely ily) some requests to publish a little more about the museum industry. So there'll be a little more of that from now on. If you've got stuff you want to see more of in these missives, lemme know!
