Most people keep their notes to themselves and forget about them. If they make notes at all.
My blog, “Indie Notebook”, is an attempt to convert every good note I have into something that makes sense or is as fun as it appeared the moment I jotted it down.
Because of that my writing is a bit all over the place, it’s about being an artist and game maker, but also life stories and random thoughts. It’s the mix that makes it fun.
