baby steps / by zach knapp

just updated the site…who’s was it that I saw, that drove down this rabbit hole to copy them? …oh yea sija hong - it’s just so much better than mine was, I just HAD TO HAVE IT.

it’s really mostly that their illustrations are fucking gorgeous, any website design would be fine for them. still chugging away on organizing and planning this little promo push I’m going to be doing. by the time you read this, you will know what I’m talking about ;)

made a list for the deliverables that I will need at the end of each month - ordering prints, updating socials, staying on track for events and a general work schedule. while the list itself is longer than i thought it was going to be, it still feels mentally like less work to be able to see it in one place; what a list is for i suppose. also, why are flat file cabinets so gaddamn expensive????

made a huge wall calendar so i could see the long-term time frame i’ll be dealing with - weekly streams, monthly work deadlines for personal work, and most importantly, time for bae. the 3 000 000 000 post-its i have will be put to good use.

im feeling a bit anxious about all this, which is to be expected. despite that, i am getting better at feeling grounded, having perspective on how much work i’ve done so far, and how much i still have ahead of me. a few positive steps in the right direction every day. everything else is just part of the flux.

guess I should have led with this but I am in the process of becoming an LLC…! Cake Space LLC baby. that is a big domino, and definitely an easy thing to cross off the list since I’ve started just looking at things i’ve been putting off and thinking “oh i’ll just do it some other time[soon]” trying to make soon mean right now with as many things as possible to try and invest in future me in as many ways as possible. again, lil anxious (read: time, money, confusion) but overall feel good and excited.
