Summer content post-mortem

On July 12, I shared the things I wanted to ship in August and needed to prepare before going on vacation. A week later, I got COVID. As a result, I couldn't deliver all the content I had initially planned. Things don't always go according to plan.

I ended up publishing five sketches and mini-essays, twenty-three blog posts, and two videos and recorded a podcast episode which is still to be edited and released1.

In August, I disconnected from the digital world and started returning to work yesterday. I deliberately stuck with two daily routines during vacation: sketching and writing. I look forward to sharing my drawings and stories with you soon2.


  1. This episode is a long-form conversation with Leire Asensio Villoria and David Mah on decoding and upgrading design systems, reverse engineering, the creative process, knowledge dissemination, and much more. Subscribe to Getting Simple to get notified when this episode goes out. 

  2. Twenty rupees is a story I wrote and published while immersed on a trip around Delhi, Agra, and Rajasthan, India.
