To wrap up this iteration on creative writing, I listened to Matt Bird\u2019s<\/a> excellent Secrets of Story<\/em> and turned my attention to short stories.<\/strong> Those are the kind I expect to write, so I found a book on writing flash fiction (Fred White\u2019s Writing Flash<\/em>) and researched short story collections to study.<\/p>\n \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n The next two weeks I\u2019m switching gears to visual art with sketchnoting and 3D modeling.<\/strong> This week I\u2019ll do some exercises from Ben Crothers\u2019 books Presto Sketching<\/em> and Draw in 4<\/em>. Next week I\u2019ll dip my toe into Blender.<\/p>\n :raised eyebrow:<\/p>\n I\u2019ve learned that my next two months at work are extra crammed full of work.<\/strong> I feel that at this point in my productivity development I can handle it, so this discovery didn’t generate the dread it might have before. I\u2019ll try not to let my workload interfere with my personal projects.<\/p>\n \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n I\u2019m nearing the end of The Stanley Parable<\/em>.<\/strong> It’s reminding me how long I take to play games, especially when I only play in small bites during dinner. I was also playing through two different versions, the original and Ultra Deluxe<\/em>, which was well worth the impulse purchase. The whole set is an interesting and amusing metafictional satire on video games.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n A post shared by Andy Culbertson (@thinkulum)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\nArt<\/h2>\n
