a week of favours

I’ve been asking a lot of favours recently. Mainly in regard to TTS. But it all left me feeling a bit dirty. So I thought I would offer up some favours to you lovely people in the new year.

I’m offering one week of favours, from the 11th to the 15th of January. There will be one favour on offer per day and anyone can ‘apply’ for one.

Here are the favours you can get from me:

#favour1 – I’ll make/find you an image

Maybe you need a photo of a very specific thing, an image for a birthday card, or a picture for a presentation. Let me know and I will sort it out.
Note: I will only spend up to 45 mins making/finding this image. After that, you’ll have to do with my best effort.
1 favour available.

#favour2 – I’ll blog  something for you

It could be a project you’re working on, a charity or a subject matter you think deserves mentioning.
Note: My blog post will be limited to 300 words and one image of your choosing (nothing inappropriate)
1 favour available.

#favour3 – I’ll look up something for you

A fact, a stat or just to confirm a reference. If you’re too lazy to do it, I’ll do it for you.
Note: I will spend a maximum of 20 mins looking and will source a maximum of two references
2 favours available.

#favour4 – I’ll tweet something for you

Much like the blogging one, only shorter. Whatever you like, within reason (see bottom of this post)
3 favours available.

#favour5 – I’ll write something for you

A poem for a loved one, a difficult email, whatever you like.
Note: It will be a maximum of 250 words. You have one chance to get me to edit bits you don’t like.
2 favours available.

How you can apply for a favour:

You can either tweet me @andywhitlock or comment on this blog post. In either case, simply quote the #favour you want to ask me. E.g. “Hey Andy, I need a picture of a small dog painting the Eiffel Tower #favour1″
You can do this any time between now and the date of the favour. #favour1 will be carried out on the 11th January, #favour2 on the 12th and so on.

[Update: On the day of the favour, you have until 12pm to apply and should be available to agree details before I begin. Selected favours will be completed between 2pm and 6pm that day - and shared publicly unless you ask for them not to be!]

Note: I decide which favours to carry out. I won’t do them if they are offensive to anyone or a dirty promotion of something rubbish.

Hopefully this will make me feel better about asking other people for favours. Entries are open now.
