I have an idea based loosely on the Photo a day thing that I tried to do in 2023. I really liked the idea of that project, but I wasn't abel to keep up with the pace of shooting a photo every day and keeping it interesting. I also wanted to incorporate my writing a little bit with it and make it something a little more involved.
So I think for 2024 I'm going to do something a little bit different. Instead of just putting out a photo a day, I'm going to put one out somewhere between once a week, or once a month. I haven't quite decided on the frequency yet. I also intend to do some writing along with it. Either a short story, or a write up on the subject of the photos. How involved it gets will depend on how much I can keep up with it.
I want to go all in on this one, so I'll be putting a good bit of time and planning into it. Though this being something I haven't done before, at least not in a serial fashion there will probably be some adjustment period in the beginning as I find my footing and see what schedule works best. As well as just what I can handle. My main goals are to create something interesting, without the project becoming overwhelming or setting goals too high so that I can't achieve them. I also want to make sure that it stays interesting. While I do expect it to start off a little rough, I do eventually want this to be something that's fun not just for me, but for people that might want to read my stuff and see my photos.
I'll be the first to admit, I'm rusty as hell. I've tinkered a little here and there but I haven't put any serious work in this direction in a long time. So I'm excited, but also kind of nervous about this. I realize that I'm under no obligation to do anything outside those I impose on myself, but I also don't want to disappoint. Myself, or anyone that decides to take an interest in my little project.
So that's the plan. I'll probably tinker a bit when I have the free time in December, but the main start will be in January. i intend this to be a project that will go all year. And after doing a few I'll make a decision on a schedule, and barring major events that would stop me, try to stick to that schedule.
Should be fun, here we go! :)
