Read my first Blog Post here:
Making a Map of your mind
Ok so, I officially don't know what I'm doing.🥴
But Austin Kleon said "Talk about the things you love"🥲
In his book "Show your Work"
So I'm just gonna yap about things I'm obsessed with.
Including this book, My Favourite Authors, My Favourite Creators, Websites, Tools. Blah Blah🙃
And I'll be learning how to make this website better. And add content to it.
These are baby steps🥰
Why did I build this website?
I've wanted to build a website for a while now.
One of my inspirations was Austin Kleon's book: Show Your Work
This page specifically. It says exactly the thing that was holding me back -- Registering a domain.
You can read it if you want:
I won’t be posting very often because I’m learning stuff.
How to write. What to write. Finding topics. Researching about those topics. Fact Checking. Etc.
Also, I would be learning more than I teach, as the stoic quote goes:
“We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.”
-Epictetus
Well, Probably more than twice for me but… you get the point.
