Drafts, and not finishing what you've started

There are dozens of drafts sitting in my WordPress blog, half-finished and waiting to be polished. I can't say for sure if any of those drafts are worth publishing, but one thing is for sure, I doubt I'll have as many unpublished ideas by using email to blog instead of WordPress. So far so good. The barrier to publishing seems so much thinner, because it is. It's one thing to publish only my best ideas, but it's another thing to just let hard work go unfinished. Time to do less of the latter.

Time for something new

I'm a day away from being on vacation for 18 days. I think I'll have more time to write, read, and generally do things that aren't design. It's an exciting prospect. More exciting is the fact that in 4 days I'll be married.

Tuesday we'll be headed to Oahu for 4 days, then Maui for 6 days. I'm thrilled to finally get some time off. I feel like the past 4 months have whizzed by so fast. I'm really looking forward to the next four.

On deck for the near future is a redesign for JasonRobb.com, which has been in the mix for almost a year now. I'm nowhere near completion, but I don't care, I don't need another job right now (mostly the reason why that site exists).

Which brings me to why I started a Posterous blog. Probably to try something new. Experiment with another thing. Most of all, I want a place where I can write comfortably without worrying that I'm disappointing my audience (if I even have one of those, who knows). I'm already noticing as I write this message that email is a very comfortable medium for me to write in. I do it every day. I do not write blog posts every day. Well, now maybe I can?

Here's to something new.
