Hi Colin, thanks for the kind words! We've definitely talked about those ideas :) Right now, we are only taking signups for our beta, and working with a few select KS projects to get it off the ground before opening it up to more project creators. Launch and pricing details soon—we'll keep you updated ;) Please feel free to email us at [email protected] if you have any further questions and suggestions! Thanks again.

12. Ironically, when we work so hard and with such passion on perfecting our craft and producing output worth sharing, we often don’t find the time to share it.

Maybe it's because I've been thinking a lot lately about how I should start blogging about my life experiences, that this stood out for me right now. I am guilty of #12 — I find myself so deep in working that I forget to pull out and actually take time to self-reflect, write about it, and share it. I think reserving time to write and share your experiences can be a helpful part in the "perfecting our craft and producing output worth sharing" process. The saying 'there is no such thing as no time, you can always make time' pops into my head from time to time. Both ideas sound nice to me, and hopefully they’re things I actually incorporate into my habits for the upcoming year! Thanks for the post :)
