Working in creative bursts
I’m coming to accept that I work in creative bursts — intense periods of production, followed by quiet introspection.

I recently came upon my first blog ever.
Done in Blogger (anybody here remembers Blogger?), Spacio en Blanko was one of my first-ever spaces in which I got to play with the web, after the likes of platforms like MySpace and GeoCities.
A thing of beauty!
It was the one place where I allowed myself to be fully me. The background was as much –– if not more –– of a statement than the text contained the database.
I was 20 years old, the last time I posted in it. I hadn’t even finished University yet, but I was already clearly done working for The Man. I’ve been back-and-forth with that for a while.
16 years later, gone are the years of angry teenage banter, but I’m thankful to still be building stuff on the web for myself and for others, and I’m taken with joy whenever I get to remember the journey.
Another thing that I’m happy for? The fact that I’ve also given myself the space to write again in Spanish. There’s so many concepts and ideas that, I realize now, need to be translated between the two sides of my bilingual brain. Check my personal website to get a taste of it.

It’s easy to get stuck inside a hamster wheel of *doing* when making things on the internet.

Buy into the systems, do the courses, get all the help you need. But at the end of the day, don’t take somebody else’s path — as valuable as their insights and experiences might be — over your own.
