Maybe the persuasive essay is the only thing I did again and again and got pretty good at. But even in undergrad English, I spent so much time on broad knowledge and so little time learning how to hone a skill. I had no expectations on how many scenes I should write before finding a good one.

Man I wish we taught the value of iteration more in school. Everything I did before work was one and done or often rough draft final draft.

But it takes so long to make anything great. We aren’t setting the right expectations about how to learn to get good at something.

[what people think game dev is]: I've got a full 40 hours booked of great game design pondering this week.

[what game dev is]: I accidently checked the "Bake AO" box, and now my graphics card is some sort of plastic liquid dripping inside my machine.

It’s 11:30am. The succulent aroma of chili cheese dog fills the air. The man behind the bar cranks up the volume as a distinct chumbawumba intro begins to play over the amplifiers
