Creative Reflections: Weekly Edition - Issue #30
Read on website This weekend, I went to the movie theater to watch the new Superman movie. When I was younger, I collected comics feverishly. I bought whatever drew my attention now that I had money burning a hole in my pocket. But comics from DC and Marvel can be a hard thing to get into, years of backlog intimidating for any newbie comic reader wanting to read American comics. So I started with the classics. The graphic novels that collected different writers' and artists' renditions of...

Read on Website Hey there! Week 27 of 2025 is over, and the start of Week 28 is here. I found Week 27 challenging, but ultimately invigorating. I’ve been in a bit of a groove and managed to get a lot done creatively. A lot of that success is the result of learning how to prioritize my tasks. I know, I know. I’ve talked to death about the importance of prioritization. Hell, I plan to write an essay on why prioritization is essential for creatives who don’t have a lot of time to spare. In the...

Read on website Hey creatives! Summer is here, and it feels like June has passed in the blink of an eye. I managed to get a lot done in June 2025 versus May 2025, and hoping to carry my momentum into July 2025. It's gonna get hot where I live, so I plan to stay indoors and continue to work towards becoming a master of many, jack of trades. Breaks are important, too. Let's not forget that. Burnout can easily derail any progress you make on your various goals. Let's hope July 2025 ends up being...
Creative Reflections: Weekly Edition Issue #28
Read on my website Hey there! Week 26 of 2025 was a good week for my creativity. The goal I always set for myself for each week is to try to get 1% better. Just 1%. And if I don't manage to do that, then I try to make sure I do it the next week. It's demotivating when you don't reach your goals every week. That's what I've been struggling with. Constant disappointment because I wasn't meeting the standards that I set for myself. I thought, at first, I was putting too much on my plate. But...

Read on my website Taking a look back at Week 25 of 2025 Hey there! I hope Week 25 of 2025 ended well for you! For me, Week 25 was a much better week than Week 24. I can feel the flow coming back. The muses singing. And thought I didn’t achieve everything I wanted to achieve, I got damn close. Often, we get bogged down with what I didn’t accomplish, rather than what we did accomplish. When you allow your mind to focus on the bad, rather than the good, it can be demoralizing. Lead your mind to...

Read on my website Taking a look back at Week 24 of 2025 Original photo by Nout Gons What can I say about Week 24? It didn’t go exactly as planned, but that seems to be given. I would be remiss to not mention the state my country is in, and the affect it’s having on my output. I’m finding creation…meaningless. But, at the same time, I still want to create. I still want to write and draw and design. Who knows what the future holds? I don’t want to end up regretting how I lived my life. I don’t...
