No new essay next week!
🕑 Added 2020-10-30 17:22:51 +0000 UTC[THE NEWS] Next week I'll have the Zorbulon bonus clips for y'all patrons, but besides that I'm slowing down for a bit! I'll be back with a big one later in November.
[INSIGHTS IF YOU'RE INTERESTED] I've been unsure about the right pace for videos since before I started... I know getting them out often is supposed to be important for growth, and I thrive on deadlines, so biweekly has been working out PRETTY good and is definitely doable. But I have been working my ass off and I still don't ever feel like I have time to be as ambitious as I want to be. BUT I also know I only get stuff done if there's a deadline, and if I extend the deadline there's a good chance I just do the exact same amount of work, just later. BUT! It feels like the right time to give it a try, I'm hoping having a month to produce a video will let me broaden the scope and make it a bit longer/finer-tuned/more compelling. Worth a shot!
And am I doing this on the month Watch Dogs Legion is finally out? Sure I am. But it seemed like the right time regardless. Proooobably back to biweekly after this? I'm really curious to see how different the process feels shooting for a month and if the payoff justifies it.
Thanks so much for your patience! I do not take a single one of you for granted, your support has meant the world to me. Have a nice weekend!

Slow down if you need to! Between this and your Watch Later series, pumping out a video essay every week sounds pretty tough and draining... we don't mind waiting longer for something youre excited about!

Does this mean I get my name in the credits twice? Jk. Be sure to set yourself deadlines for the steps along the way instead of one big "finish project" deadline! ♥️
