So where are the projects?

The next book is progressing pretty good.  The odd part is some of it is old work, some is new, and integrating it and syncronicing the information is a bit tough.  I’m also learning a lot about my own work.  I think everyone will like what’s coming up.

Seventh Sanctum’s redesign is good, though I’m still trying to get over some of my old design habits.  I should have another post up at the Facebook community in a bit.

The real issue?  The huge amounts of devices out there and different use cases.  Making a site that “scales for mobile” really doesn’t do it justice . . . fortunately Bootstrap lives up to its reputation.  Still . . .  there’s a lot to consider.  I’m actually going to go with a two-style design for tablet/PC and small mobile for the sake of my own sanity.

Well part of the goal was to refresh my web skills.

Also we MIGHT have a few related projects coming up related to the Sanctum.  Stay tuned, but some of the old gang and I are talking . . .

I’m going to be at Celesticon in two weeks.  There’s going to be a lot going on, so be sure to come by!

I also am helping out another friend’s convention – they need talent in the Bay Area to speak on careers and fandom.  So if you’re interested, give me a buzz!

Trying to organize my blogging here as well.  So I hope to be doing more than updates and recipes.  Maybe.

Though I do have a few more recipes to post . . .

Weekly Update 8/12/2013

Yeah, things faded off a bit there near the end of the week.  I got busy and had Kin-Yoobi con to speak at, so I got sort of caught up in everything!

OK the next book is at about 40%.  So it’s still not due until end of year, and you won’t find out about what it is for a few more months.  However it’s still looking to be awesome, definitive, and frankly builds on some past work that needed more expansion.

As noted, I’ve been considering wrapping up several of my past works into convenient eBooks.  Let me know what you’d like to see!

The Seventh Sanctum redesign continues and I posted an update on the Facebook page.  Though the feedback means that it’s going to look a lot different from what you see there.  Still aiming for a release October, probably later.  The real challenge is connecting the back end to the front end properly.

MuseHack is adding more interviews over time – I’m aiming for one a week if possible.  We’ll also keep up with the guest posts – drop me a line if you want on.

Still added more stuff to my schedule.  Going to be a busy fall . . .

Site Update 8/5/2013

Hello all, and what’s been up with me?

Well first, more writing on the next book – which frankly there probably won’t be much more to say for at least 2 more months.  So it’s large, and it’s about careers, and its some things you’ve seen before in a new form.

I’m expanding my speaking opportunities if you check my Schedule – and there are more to come!  I’m still open if you need anyone for career and geek speaking!

The Seventh Sanctum redesign is going well – in that I’ve got a format to get feedback on.  Not so hot in that it’s clear I’m a bit behind on my design plans and need to really rethink it.  So I’m going to start experimenting even more and see how it goes.
