Hey |IF:FNAME||FNAME| 👋|ELSE:|awesome human!|END:IF| I’ve been thinking a lot about what life was like as a kid. I remember spending hours in imaginary worlds. Playing outside—even in the freezing cold (and then burning my toes in the bathwater). I remember building forts. Sitting on the floor playing TV games. Climbing trees. Painting at my little white art table. Building Lego. Being a kid was awesome, and I’m fortunate to have had an amazing childhood.

What’s been occupying my mind is how I did it all with reckless abandon. I would get intensely into whatever I was doing—and wholly lost in that moment. Time flew by. I didn’t care what other people thought of me. I didn’t care about money or tax or looking the part. I just did what I felt like doing—with all my heart. I want to return to creating with this childlike absorption.

Does wanting to create like this resonate with you? And what else about being a kid was magical for you? Let me know—I’m curious to hear your thoughts.

A few more things:

  1. I have a Dribbble invite—are you salivating at the opportunity to get on there? It’s an invite-only platform for showcasing your design and illustration skills.

  2. I’m testing out Superpeer. (https://ttkb.me/superpeer) It’s a paid service where you can schedule 1-on-1 sessions with me. A session like this may be exactly what you’ve been wishing for. We can chat about your portfolio, your career, a specific project, creativity, a technical issue you’re having. Or anything else really.
