I‘m going to try to get one of these posts out each week, even if I don’t publish anything else. Part of the purpose of this blog is to keep me working on things, and these little goals and confessionals are a means to that end. Feel free to skip over these posts as you see fit. They’re basically just here for my own sake.

Weekly Report, Week 12

Right. Turns out I’m a bit of an optimist when it comes to estimating the amount of free time I’ll have on the weekend of my wife’s 25^th birthday. In other words, the success rate of last week’s goals wasn’t exactly stellar. I got some writing done, though. Just background stuff that I jotted down on the bus home from work. Not sure about the exact number (doing word count on longhand is time-consuming and boring), but I daresay it was a bit more than 500. So I suppose that’s good.

As for the promised post, well, that obviously didn’t happen. I made a few preparations, cutting out flattened images from Photoshop files, and so on, so I’ll see about getting it up later tonight or tomorrow.

As for my third goal, well, I did sit for quite a while re-organizing some of my photos, which I suppose could be construed of as at least tangentially a creative endeavour.

Maybe.

No? No, I don’t really buy that either, but I’m going to let myself off the hook this time. I’ll try harder this week, I promise. I feel a veritable truckload of good ideas besetting me even now, so prepare to be dazzled.

Goals for Week 13

1. Get the rejected design proposals post out. Ahem.
2. Do a bit of writing, say somewhere between 500 and 1000 words. Did quite a bit today, so the week is off to a good start.
3. Let’s see. What else? Create a little, get some ideas off the ground, put a little effort into some things. Maybe post something – anything, really. If not something new, then something old. Got a few things lying around that I’ve kept mostly to myself.

That’s it, people. Go create something.
