1st Annual General Meeting Summary (5th December 2025)

The summary of the 1st Annual General Meeting (AGM) for Pomerak Ventures is as follows: - The company agrees its future budget for the remainder of the financial period (maximum allowances on marketing only to purchase a re-stock of business cards and minimal marketing on social media platforms). - The company re-elects Jack Soley as CEO. - The company re-affirms its dividend ratio of 4% to be paid out on the 10th April 2026 or later. - The company will consider economic viability of the progression of the music arm of the business, as royalties from music distribution are not covering the costs of the subscriptions to the music distribution services, however this arm of the business can still be continued provided enough funds come from other areas of the business. - The company will set the web domain and hosting as an essential cost. - The Open Blue Trust will receive the £77.00 donation from the company as part of its Charity Drive 2025 no later than 1st February 2026 due to delays...

Whatever You Buy in November will be donated to charity!

As part of my Charity Drive pledge for this year, the proceeds of ALL sales (Pomerak Ventures Shop, Amazon, physical book sales) will be donated to the Open Blue Trust, have a look at my Charity Drive 2025 post if you'd like a recap. With past per monthly sales figures, it won't be a great hundreds of pounds sum or anything close, but whatever can be generated will be donated, even if you read on kindle, money will be donated to charity for November only, and there's no trickery where prices have been raised/lowered, there's no catch, nothing. If you're thinking of buying a book or some music for the festive period, buy it now and you'll also help out the Open Blue Trust with their community projects!

The Alto Sanctuary - Lunar Odyssey

  Title:  Lunar Odyssey Artist:  The Alto Sanctuary Release Date:  12th February 2021 (Re-Release: 7th November 2025) Format:  Digital, LP, CD Genre:  Ambient, Experimental UPC: 198876259322 Jack Soley's 3rd musical venture was that of a differing texture, The Alto Sanctuary was an ambient and experimental music project influenced by Nico Fors, Jean Michel Jarre, and some of the earliest works of David Bowie. The delivery of minimalistic beat samples along with the use of repetitive loops, and low frequency sounds give the listener a feeling of serenity, and an experience that allows themselves to be consciously aware of the music.  Since 2011, Soley had created music but had been more into Electronic and Dance, The Alto Sanctuary marks his third musical venture that officially began when his debut album The Chilling Memories was released at the start of 2021. Most of his work falls under the Drone and Experimental sub-genres of Ambient music, his albu...

Charity Drive 2025 Update

An earlier post in the month, I asked if there were any charities you would think I should support for the upcoming Charity Drive where I would donate 100% of proceeds of Pomerak Ventures books and music sales to charity. Bluntly, nobody replied to my call so I decided to choose the charity myself... It took a bit of thought but I didn't realise that the charity that called to me the most was one I actually benefitted from when I was growing up, that charity being the Open Blue Trust. For those who are unaware, the Open Blue Trust utilises a blue double decker bus that travels around rural communities in Wiltshire that provide an outlet for young people, that can help provide social opportunities, and can give people a chance to be creative and learn vital skills that they otherwise wouldn't have access to, this trust also uses the bus to hold community gatherings by many people across North Wiltshire. Before Pinehurst had a community centre which was completed in 2011, there w...

Jack Soley with Graham Rogers on BBC Radio Wiltshire (17th & 18th March 2025)

My first proper appearance in the media where I was involved with someone (rather than being documented in some tabloid) after my appearance on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? on the Sunday, come Monday afternoon when I almost finished my shift at my new workplace, I was on a phone call with Mr. Graham Rogers that was live throughout Wiltshire and Gloucestershire documenting my time on the programme where I won some cash, on a show sat opposite none other than Mr. Jeremy Clarkson. Because it was live and I didn't quite grasp how bad stage fright can be until my second appearance, the first interview was over the phone while I was at work and the second interview was the following day, except I was chatting with Graham in the studio, he's a cool guy and had no idea he used to be on TVS, the more you know!
