JOURNALS
Well, Wednesday was quite the rollercoaster. The morning was dedicated to working on pixel shifting code for my animation project. It felt good to dive into the nitty-gritty details, ensuring each frame was generated perfectly. There's something satisfying about seeing the code come together bit by bit, and today was no exception.
Lunch was a nice break, giving me time to recharge and prepare for the afternoon.
The afternoon saw me plotting more postcards. I did learn something new, though—using my fountain pen to plot tiny designs on small postcard-sized paper required a different technique. The lines were too close together, and the ink started chewing up the paper. I had to rework the design to be more spaced out, which fortunately solved the issue. Also, I'm thinking of adding names and edition numbers generated by the handwriting server. It's a small detail but adds a personal touch that I think recipients will appreciate.
In the late afternoon, I shifted focus to the upcoming newsletter. I spent some time outlining next week's edition, which made me realise something crucial. I’d often try to share updates immediately, but I need to embrace the project time-lapse. Documenting thoroughly, taking plenty of progress photos, and only sharing finished work could lead to more structured and polished content. This might be the subject of my next newsletter—how time-shifted projects can actually bring more structure and quality.
Evening reflection brought clarity. The timer schedule worked quite well, especially in the morning. However, I should have reset the timers for the afternoon. My productivity dipped because it took time to get into the flow of shop code, which felt rusty. Anyway, tomorrow will be set aside for admin tasks and pushing forward with the shop code. Also, I think it might be time to contact the estate agent and the buyer to try and finally move things along with selling the old studio. If there’s no progress, I'm contemplating resetting everything with a new agent.
Summing up, today was productive, informative, and filled with small yet important insights. There’s still a long way to go, but one step at a time, right?
