I’ve been thinking about what is a more manageable medium for me to post without putting pressure on myself to put out a YouTube video or finish a whole album to give me a reason to post. I think writing will be a fit for me right now. Reply with topics you want me to touch on!
My chronic pain, specifically wrist, forearm, back, and joint pain make it almost impossible to edit videos or work on side projects lately. I have 4 videos recorded, but I just don’t have the energy and strength to edit and put in the effort I typically do for my videos.
Some days are better than others, as with most chronic pain, but I’ve learned that my health comes before anything else. Writing is much easier for me since I don’t have to use a mouse much for it. I’ve also been learning so much in design and leadership, that I want a better medium to share these learnings.
I miss writing the way I used to (I used to write weekly articles for 2+ years). So, I am going to attempt to write and share more in 2022. I am keeping myself accountable by sharing this, and time-boxing my writing to just 1 hour to make these posts.
Posts will typically have a main topic, what I’m working on, what I’m consuming, what I’m learning, and Cool Stuff™. I’ve felt inspired by others and their writing and want to give a newsletter a try for myself. You can also receive extras on
my Patreon here.
No promises, but I will try my best to start writing as a means to share more and am aiming for 1-2 times a month. Let’s give it a try this week with updates from the past few months, always open to feedback on the format of these!
