Week 49
A little bit of space and time can work wonders. Last week was busy! But because it was the last regular week of class, and my students had presentations all week, my work/prep burden didn’t cannabilize my free time. My fuck-this-shit index was trending down.
I launched The Hill of the Skull on all platforms (Amazon, my shop, etc.). It feels good to put it to bed, finally, and begin working on new projects. I also launched a few print bundles on my shop too. I set up coupon codes so that Artifact International members get huge discounts on all the shop items.
On 1 December, I posted the new Genius Loci newsletter. And a few days before that, I also posted a new YouTube video on taking Field Notes, which I posted about here too.
On the Artifact International front, I created the new landing page on my own website and a new member-zone behind a simple htaccess password setup. In doing this, I finished my transition away from Memberpress to a Memberful free plan, whose percentage is a bit high but it doesn’t include a yearly fee that I’m loath to dish out each November.
I started working on the THOTS Kickstarter postmortem, which I don’t have energy to finish, and potentially another essay/video. I’m also reviving my AM project soon, and thinking about the future.
The week ahead
Edit and post another TWW episode. Send out some mailing list emails. Grade. Think about what the next year’s work will look like.
