soooo. i've never been great at writing.

i regret it, but writing is something i've avoided. i thought it wasn't for me, so i didn't bother to work on it. i would make things instead!

unfortunately or fortunately?. it helps to be able to explain the things you make to others if you want the thing to succeed.

i've started to recognize that the context within which you create something and the story behind the project can be as important as the project itself.

so writing is something i should be able to do well because i want my projects to have an impact.

when people can see the journey behind a project, when you take them behind the scenes, they're more likely to connect with it on a personal level.

how will i get better at writing?

well, i'm going to write a lot more. starting with this post :).

most of what i plan on writing will be programming related: projects i'm working on, thoughts on things i find interesting in the realm of software and web development, and maybe a personal story every once in a while.

will try to keep punctuation and grammatical errors to a minimum...

here's to becoming better communicators and more well-rounded creators!
