Steve’s Update 4/9/2018

(This column is posted at www.StevenSavage.com and Steve’s Tumblr)

Hey everyone, it’s Steve’s update.  So let’s find out what’s up!

So what have I done the last week?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Pre-readers are chugging away – with the error-corrected copy.
  • Agile Creativity: Agile Principle 9 went out.  This one was an odd one, so let me know what you think
  • Epic Resume Go Rewrite: I took my break.  More below.
  • Seventh Sanctum: I got more feedback on the Nexus!  People are for it, and the consensus seems to be doing it but making it at best 50% of my effort.  I’ve got a few ideas on that that’ll come out in a bit for new generators.
  • Other: Some speaking and various chores, nothing noteworthy.

What am I going to do this week:

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Sitting on this one.
  • Epic Resume Go Rewrite: This week I’m going to try to do the whole thing, from using editor’s comments to getting it out.  Can I do it in a week?  STAY TUNED!
  • Agile Creativity: Agile Principle #10 is next and its possibly my favorite as it focuses on the value of not doing things.  Really.
  • Seventh Sanctum: Processing the Nexus feedback, and getting ready to do some new coding.
  • Other: Taking it easier this week.

Steve’s Update 4/1/2018

Hey everyone, it’s Steve’s update.  So let’s find out what’s up!

So what have I done the last week?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Is out to my pre-readers!  Yay!
  • Agile Creativity: Agile Principle 8 went out – and boy I had a lot to say.
  • Epic Resume Go Rewrite: I got the editor’s comments back!
  • Seventh Sanctum: I just posted the latest update – the Nexus!
  • Other: Mostly cleanup and a few other tasks.  I actually noted I let some stuff go until the end of the month, so instead I’m going to try and get Personal Administrative Stuff out of the way at the start of the month.

What am I going to do this week:

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Not much . . . except correcting a naming error in the book I sent to my pre-readers.
  • Epic Resume Go Rewrite: I’m taking a break this week to get a lot of general chores done.  I’ll probably try to get it edited out in one go middle of the month.
  • Agile Creativity: Agile Principle #9 is next, and it’s a good one on technical excellence!  This is a subtle one . . .
  • Seventh Sanctum: Tally up feedback on the Nexus and see what people think – so far it’s positive.  Thinking maybe the fastest way to fill it in is a Google form for people along with my own work.
  • Other: Prepare to speak at the Silicon Valley Comic Con!

Steve’s Update 3/24/2018

A bit of an earlier update, so let’s get to it!

So what have I done the last week?

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Edited!  Ready!  it goes out this week to pre-readers (that can be you by the way).
  • Agile Creativity: Just the usual stuff here – you read the latest post.
  • Epic Resume Go Rewrite: Is off to my editor, and is looking good for coming out end of April!
  • Seventh Sanctum: Got interrupted due to assorted life issues, so sorry on that.  More below.
  • Other: I’m trying to line up new speaking for the year!

What am I going to do this week:

  • A Bridge To The Quiet Planet: Send to pre-readers then take a break.
  • Epic Resume Go Rewrite: Probably not too much right now, wait on the editor.
  • Agile Creativity: Write on the Eighth Agile Principle, which is on sustainability, and is one of my favorites.  Actually it and the Tenth (on minimalism) are my faves because they’re often so contrary . .
  • Seventh Sanctum: Get out the Alpha of the Registry finally.  I’d like to not be distracted, but I got on a real run tweaking things once I started working on improvements.
