Wanting to slow down and do something more enjoyable is all very well, but I soon realised this was going to be difficult. Difficult saying no thanks I won't take that free game, I'll write something for free instead. Difficult actually figuring out what it was I had to say, and difficult to do that on anything like a regular basis.
These 12 articles are my first faltering steps towards resolving some of these difficulties. As it turns out I failed to some extent on every level. But you have to start somewhere I guess.
