some things I never thought I would say
Now that we're running Rebis more like an actual record label, I've taken it upon myself to learn the intricacies of Excel and do most of the label bookkeeping.
I detest thinking about money and I'm not good at math, so I don't intuitively feel like I'm a good candidate for "label accountant," but once I started to think of the bookkeeping as a data-management / archiving puzzle the geek part of my brain seized upon it, and now working on it actually gives me a substantial amount of pleasure.
In an e-mail I just sent to my label-mate Chris, I wrote the words "You should see this spreadsheet. It is slowly becoming a thing of beauty."
In other news, I'm still thinking about exactly what constitutes "literary risk," and I'll write up a post on that, possibly with Venn diagrams, sometime this week. |
