This week I have learned: the joy I get from designing immersive, interactive sessions. Working with some colleagues in our European business on an event for next month and it's the sort of work that feels like a happy place. But that might be the novelty. I'm probably putting too much into the Hacking Apophenia … Continue reading Weeknote 701: in the wild

I was going to have a meet-up to celebrate hitting the 700 milestone, but events, dear reader. Events. This week I have learned: that I've hit 700 on the weeknote totaliser.

This week I have learned: August is a funny month. You can pretty much guarantee that anything that people say will need to happen in the month will not unless it does. This makes contingency planning tricky. Japan was an incredible experience. As a tiny vignette of the cultural differences, in Japanese cities there are … Continue reading Weeknote 695: back to it

This week, I have learned: Some potential health challenges ahead for the older members of the clan. I'm continuing to work through how confronting mortality is increasingly a part of daily life as you age. Reaching the first milestone of a clear content plan for the book project is satisfying. Undoubtedly, though, some actual writing … Continue reading Weeknote 691: scans
