It just occurred to me that my doodles are all just playgrounds for #doodlebot. 😊 🖍
This utterly delights me. .

Yes, there’s a DIFFERENCE between mess and clutter! This is SO IMPORTANT to understand, especially for creators! 🖍
I’ll be going over the other 6 differences, PLUS 8 reasons WHY we hold onto clutter, at a FREE clutterbusting session next Tuesday. We’ll do a real, live ClutterBust ON THE CALL, so you’ll actually bust some clutter and experience the power of ClutterBusting for yourself! Link in profile, or go to http://bit.ly/2u8yQvB
🖍
Clear your clutter to free up space to CREATE! (Not to mention THINK and BREATHE again. 😊)

Doodlebot is BACK! I needed some pure playtime in the #creativesandbox this morning, so I pulled out a postcard and started to doodle. I asked myself my favorite question, “What if..?” (That’s from #creativesandboxway Guidepost #6, btw. 😊) What if I did something *different* from what I would normally do? At each juncture, make a *different* choice!
🖍
This #doodle is the result! It has elements of things I’ve done before (knots, repeating patterns, line quality, and of course, Doodlebot), but the lines intersecting the knot doodles without actually touching them—that’s new. And the knot doodles not being “complete,” but sort of dangling in space—that’s not typical for me.
🖍
Try going against the grain today! Do the opposite of what you’d normally do, or something different from your usual maneuver. See what happens. We all get in ruts, and there’s nothing like trying something different to shake up new ideas and get you into a fun, new groove. 😊

You guys! I have my first practice gig for visual notetaking on Sunday!! I’m excited and FREAKED OUT, because it will be the first time I’ll be doing this with people watching! GAAAAAHHHH! Here is a sketchbook page of ideas for icons for Committee reports. I’m really not crazy about “Adult Ed.” I’ll see if I can come up with something I like better.
🖍
Next task: cut several sheets of 4’x5’ paper, to be ready to put on my 4’x4’ board when I get to the venue on Sunday. I plan to tape up several sheets before we start, so I can tear them off when I’m done and keep right on going.
🖍
Also: – Make sure pens are fully inked up
– Make sure I have sticky notes, white-out tape, and pencils also in my satchel
🖍
I recently placed an order from @neulandcom for a carry bag for my foam core boards. Crossing my fingers that it arrives on time! 🤞
