On Increasing Creative Output
This week I am juggling a number of things related to PyCon Canada, and life in general. Also I came to the realization in the past few weeks, that if I want to effectively work on long term projects like Rookeries, writing about tooling, working on my side adventure, et cetera, without burnning out I…
