This YouTuber doesn't like to reply to comments on his videos because he says it is too difficult to communicate without being able to see the person and pick up on any visual cues and inflections. I can understand that, so I told me and he made a video reply back. This reminded me to make videos.

A new free-verse opener that I've been working on for some time. It has been altered so much that it is barely recognizable from what it had started out as a year ago! Seattle sky-rise marvels of modernity with unique slants, angles, and spheres but something is lacking, a heart.

Finally, Bluesky can upload ten minute videos! One of the worst things about this platform had been that there were such extreme restrictions on both the length and size of videos so everything had to be about one minute. Until now I couldn't take is seriously as a video platform.

This Washington Post article inspired me to create a class that is basically doodling as a form of meditation. It start on OCT 4, runs for eight 30-min sessions (on Sundays) and is only $40. Come doodle with me. www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/202...

I'm beginning to realize that my life would have been so much easier had I uploaded my #writings to #Ellipsus to have a good #editor review them all and send my #drawings to #Padlet to have a drawing instructor #critique them before doing so much complex #web-design work! Start with the small parts.

Over the summer I did a haiku comic and a one page comic story. David teaches entire classes on those two subjects that would be wonderful to take for people who want to tackle on of those areas. I'm going to take the doodle class as a warm up for a more advanced one that will be offered later.

These last day of school videos are fun! I wish my family would have thought of this when I was in school. We sort of did have video on a last day but they weren't really interview style and that way of doing it brings up nice memories. #LastDayOfSchool #LastDayOfEighthGrade #MiddleSchool

I really enjoyed this adaptation of The Little Prince! The book was required reading in high school but I had forgot some of the plot. Roughest Draft reviewed it recently and that refreshed my memory so I had to check out the whole story again! #GreatFilm #GreatBook #Puppetry #Animation

I will be taking a fun #comics class over this Summer! For the last year or two I needed more custom illustration work in my projects but haven't had the open time to draw as I do now. This will be the first time that my teacher is also a former classmate! (in graphic design a while ago.)

One of the loose inspirations for Learning To Walk was the middle school books series. I liked how someone came up with the idea of blending comic books with a chapter book. The movie has some neat animations in it and I'd love to bring animations to my project took. I've used Procreate Dreams some.

This looks like a great show to re-visit! I watched some of it but probably not every episode. Fascinating how even back in 1992 reading scores were starting to drop due to digital distractions long before the age of the smartphone. #GhostWriter #KidsReading #MiddleSchool #EducationalProgramming

Last summer I was in process of drawing a mountain of illustrations for Learning To Walk Again but I found a few hours to participate in this talk with three SE people and Dylan. Usually SE talks are set up to be one on one but I'd say this one worked pretty well with the three of us!

I just watched the latest review of my project after putting it off (I usually get a little nervous after a review gets done!) One point brought up was the time put in to hand draw the lettering and yes, each poem heading was drawn with numerous iterations like these to get to the final design.

I had a YouTube channel review my project this morning. It was submitted so many months ago that I almost forgot about it. I told the guy who runs the channel that it was my portfolio. I said that because it showcases a lot of what I do. The truth is, I'm actually working on my real portfolio now.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I wrote a Yelp review for Eckstein. I figured since I wrote so much about it in my book I might as well post a review too.

This is an early concept I used for the poem "Interare." The idea was to surround the word "are" so that it was inside the confines of the second part of the word. I was afraid the bottom part would read "IareR. learningtowalkagain.life/ShortPoems/ #PoemHeadings #InteractiveBook #HandLettering

A rough sketch of a title for my poem. The idea was to connect all the characters together so that it would go with the theme of moving up in age. I ended up dropping this concept so I could go with big chunkier type that matched the other titles in my work. #BookSky #InteractiveBook #HandLettering
The letters "12 to 13" almost all connected together to show the theme of going from one age to the next.

I've been working on heading graphics for my introduction blurb page for over a year. I didn't expect it to take so long but for some reason the graphic with positive type on the top, negative see through type on bottom messed with my mind a little bit! #BookSky #InteractiveBook #HandLettering
A very rough first draft which has horrible letter spacing. I knew I had to through something together very quickly so I could get the site online as soon as possible. The second draft which became much more interesting. The drip of the "g" is now matched by the "L" pooling together. Looks like I didn't quite plan the spacing for the of letters on "again" too well at the point where the pool of ink was getting narrower. 

The decender of the "g" made into the pool is so large that it almost doesn't read as a "g" at all. I kept it like that for over a year and a half. The basic idea of what I was going after was put in place though.This hand pencil drawing got the letter spacing pretty good.This was likely one of the first computer renderings where I was trying to imitate the look of black ink which was later extensively used in the first section of the site; the first five pages or so that have a gold look to them.

I made an update to this poem page with some new free verse on pink. This whole project is organized together by colors that gradually change from page to page. The image I used is for the other poem that has a lot of green in it. There should probably be a photo that displays #pink too.
