I hope you are all well! I'm reporting back from my vacation with some great news:
It's official now: I'm living in Barcelona! Everything is set up now, I'm already sitting at my new workspace and writing this text in a beautiful coworking space, the Glashaus in the "Poblenou" district. I am absolutely happy with my decision and totally looking forward to the next months here.
I've also had some time now to think about my work again. I realized that the communication with you here via Patreon was quite chaotic from my side during the last months. In the last few days I have thought again very fundamentally about my content strategy and have come to the realization that it is important to develop a solid structure. Here I would like to thank Nico Landrieux, who has advised me phenomenally well!
I have now developed a structure that feels both meaningful and, above all, realistic to me. I would like to present it to you here. Basically, it's about giving the posts, or updates on a category that repeats at a regular pace monthly. I have specified four categories that should appear in a regular rhythm monthly on Patreon.
✅ Week 1: Curriculum Update
The Curriculum Update lands in patrons' inboxes at 4 p.m. on the first Friday of the month. In this newsletter I share my progress in developing my curriculum, i.e. courses and lessons.
💡 Week 2: Creative Coding Inspiration
Every second Friday of the month I send you a thick package of inspiration. This can be a new conversation with an inspiring person from the creative coding community, but also links to exciting channels, book recommendations, exhibitions or projects. Sometimes I will also share a new episode of my livestream trustTheProcess().
💪 Week 3: Mastering the Learning Process
Learning creative coding is not easy in the beginning. To support you in your learning process, every third Friday of the month I share content with you that helps you understand and structure your learning process, stay motivated and ultimately succeed.
🌍 Week 4: Discord Meetup
On the last Friday of each month, at 5pm, there will be a Meetup on our Discord channel. There you can ask questions, share some ideas or simply get to know other members. Shortly before, at 4pm, I will send you a reminder on Patreon.
This is the new timetable. And I'm very curious to see how it works.
What do you think about these ideas? Have I perhaps forgotten something important? Do you think that this rhythm can help you to stay motivated? Let me know in Comments
I wish you a wonderful week! 🌞
Tim
