Here’s my latest update – and a lot to discuss!

So what have I done the last week?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: The final edit before pre-reading is in progress.
  • Writing: The fourth Agile column is coming soon – and more to come, of course
  • Personal Agile Guide: This is launched and out!  So if you subscribe to my newsletter, you get a copy!
  • Seventh Sanctum: My next project is going well – it’s a page on which I’ll keep a “registry” of other cool generators from other sites.  I’ve got it working, it’s just stocking it with links, so I am gonna need a little time.  Give it a few weeks.
  • Unpacking: Ok this wasn’t what I promised YOU, but I did get a lot done.

What am I going to do this week:

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Editing continues.  Probably won’t have much to say.
  • Writing: On to Agile Principle #5 of course, and I’m hoping to do other columns.
  • Seventh Sanctum: Stocking that new registry, of course.

General

  • The commute is sorting out.  It’ll take a little longer to get it in order, but it’s pretty good.
  • This coming month I am going to try to do the rewrite of my resume guide as well as my regular work.  Wish me luck!

Here’s my latest update – and a lot to discuss!

So what have I done the last week?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: I got done with the arc I wanted to edit and am actually ahead of the game!  So we’re in great shape.
  • Writing: The blogging is going well, and the Agile Creativity series will see a focus on Principle 3 . . . probably awhile after this post!
  • Personal Agile Guide: I did some additional editing, so more to come . . .
  • Seventh Sanctum: I got some behind-the-scenes work done to optimize the site for browsers.
  • Unpacking: Ok this wasn’t what I promised YOU, but I did get a lot done.

What am I going to do this week:

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: I may start on the final-edit-before-prereaders.  That’s debatable.
  • Writing: Continue my columns, and cover Agile Principle #4.
  • Personal Agile Guide: I plan to format it this week, with a (hopeful) drop this weekend.
  • Miscellaneous: I hope to do some Sanctum work (FINALLY) if I can keep not being interrupted my stuff.

General

  • Still sorting out the commute.  It’s a real poster.  I could ride the train which takes longer but has wifi.  I can drive which doesn’t take too much longer than my old commute, but puts me at the mercy of traffic.

Here’s my latest update!  With my move done and that insane January out of the way, I will get back to regular deliverables.

So what have I done the last week(s)?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Editing is going faster than I thought, I’m almost to the big arc I have to tweak.  I think it may be done next week, which means I can get this thing pre-readable in March easy!  Maybe mid-March!
  • Writing: The new series on Agile and creativity is ramping up as you’ve seen – prepare for a lot more to come!
  • Personal Agile Guide: I’ve got the cover done!  So I’ll be dropping this one the end of the Month!

What am I going to do this week:

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: More editing of course.  I will hopefully finish most of that arc this week.
  • Writing: More column work of course!  I plan to do one a week – the next one is almost ready.
  • Personal Agile Guide: I want to start formatting it and get it out end of month.

General

  • The commute is giving me time to write, though as it’s either way early or after work occasionally what I’m in the “mood” to do varies.
  • Now that I’m back on track with all my writing, I want to try to catch up with my Sanctum plans.  After last month’s chaos, it’s a bit hard to get back on top of everything.  Still, I will get to it!
  • Wondering if I need to do these weekly updates.  I kind of like them as they make me focus, but with a month-long sprint? I wonder.
