Worth the risk?

Bear danger sign posted on an orange traffic cone
Bear danger is real because so many visitors have no clue how to sensibly behave in the wild.

Worth the risk to publish 10 consecutive days of photo-free posts?

Yes.

Why?

Because of the experiments from several months ago.

Remember?

Posts with text only.

Posts with photos only.

Posts with videos only.

The original experiments where small risks at the time.

There was setup and “warning” about the coming changes.

Explained the “why”.

What seemed like a (small) risk at the time was simply a slow and steady way to improve.

Improve what?

Improve the ability to manage life and a daily, two-hour (average) writing commitment. And, the advent of some major life changes on the horizon.

It could happen

Grizzly Bear and man
This could be the local Bass Pro Shops or outside someone’s cabin.

It could happen. You could be thinking, like i have been, that the five themes have been shot to heck with all this text-less, photos-only, videos-only experimental posts.

Agreed.

Thanks for coming along for the ride.

Doing things that might not work requires taking risks.

Crave failure.

Kinda Magical

Cinderella Castle and Space Mountain
Something about this photo.

The past week posting (almost) only videos…fun, weird, opportunistic.

Opportunitistic?

Yes.

How?

Don’t know yet, but i can feel something.

Writers without borders

Google results for Disney Keynote Speaker
While in Kuwait, Googled “Disney Keynote Speaker”. That’s some serious front page result. Blame it on prolific writing.
Disney Stitch toy, bead jar, and Teddy Bear at Kuwait Towers. All four inspire writing from anywhere.

Doctors Without Borders. We’ve all heard of that. Self-explanatory.

Writers without borders is the same but different.

The title is the same, but the meaning and motivation is paradoxically different.

Writing without borders means no tradition nor dogma will constrain the writer.

The writer has no borders.

No lines to stay within.

No boundaries.

No rules.

Freedom.

Back to back weeks

Turning Red Pixar ad
Just watched Turning Red. Pixar’s storytelling continues to excel.

Back to back weeks.

What?

Back to back week-long experiments:

  1. One week with only photos
  2. One week with no photos

It will be fun and interesting to see how i like it when it goes live.

Note: Odds are decent it will happen again before these two week-long experiments publish. This means any decision to continue either experiment will be a blind, gut feeling, not a visual and verifiable experience.
