Hi, Y'all!So this is my first newsletter from my new platform; I guess it will take a couple of newsletters to get comfortable on this Beehiiv Platform.

Attention: I'm not offering premium content right now; I plan to redo my overall content planning next year. So you'll have to wait until then!

The links I have gathered reflect how we learn and what we can do to learn in a better way.

Four Things I Got Excited About This Week ☀️

  1. Even if my Novel has a much lower writing pace than I hoped for, it's still good so far, 15k words in. It will be finished when it's ready!

  2. I finished the rest of my Atomicasts, so now I can lean back and focus on other things. See also my article down under here about it.

  3. Finished setting up my newsletter here; I hope it will work well sending it out too.

  4. I've been under the weather this week due to the flu, but I'm coming out of it now. So this week has been low on creativity, or has it? LOL, well, I recorded the remaining sixteen episodes of my Atomicast for NaPodPoMo, Wrote and polished two articles on Medium. I wrote and scheduled seven essays, plus I wrote another 4k word on my novel.... ;)
