Hey Tom,

I don't think you're doing anything wrong. I think this is pretty much the way it goes when a project is strictly volunteer. For me personally, I have other paying clients that I need to appease (so my business can continue to move forward) and it is also the holiday season. This means many people have a fury of work, school and personal holiday parties to go to and tons of shopping to do for gifts. This week alone I have three Christmas parties! I also want to have some sort of personal life and time away from creating audio assets for games and film. I can't speak for the rest of the team, because I don't know them, but I would wager that is what is going on with them as well.

So, I wouldn't worry, you're not doing something wrong. I also wouldn't think of this project as "stalled". While this may be a top priority for you, perhaps there are others on the crew that have several other things they have to place higher on the list? It isn't a diss on you, just the way things go.

There isn't a tight deadline on this project, as far as I know. I would just relax and allow things to progress and try to enjoy this busy time of year. If a month passes by and no progress has been made, THEN it is the time to fret. As is, I think you (and your project) are okay.

Hope that helps,

Nathan
