  • Write down your current minimum, stick to it. You can review after a few days if there’s no interest.

    Be up front, show pictures of flaws or damage on the items.

    Respect people’s time. Keep the listing up to date. Try to learn from failed interactions and update the listing accordingly.

    Have an idea of how the item is getting to the buyer and how much that would cost. Prefer to meet in person in a well trafficked area when others will be around and there are cameras nearby that you can rely on in case of robbery. Inside a Starbucks, for example. If someone is resistant to meeting in a public place, reconsider doing business with them.

    Cash is king. Everything else can be clawed back if they scream “fraud!” Having flaws on the listing will give you a lot of power when someone tries to get the money back.






  • Rogue-like: Randomly generated levels, high difficulty, ‘run’ based with very limited continuity between runs. (Generally, items and resources gained on a run are lost when the run ends, usually there is an exception that lets you improve some aspect of your character for the next run)

    Deckbuilder: Actions, movement and/or abilities are controlled by randomly drawing power cards from a deck. Spent cards are move to a discard pile. When your draw pile is empty, shuffle the discard pile and move it to the draw pile.

    During the game, cards can be added and removed from the deck, allowing the player to tune their decks for a desired playstyle.












  • I’ve stopped giving myself a hard time for having wandering interests and not finishing anything.

    I try to look at it more as I’m having fun researching and implementing things, that’s what hobbies are for.

    Trying to force myself to finish things really sucked the fun out of them. Now I have literal and figurative buckets for each project so I can easily put down and pick up projects.

    I find myself moving between fewer projects and putting more effort into them than I would have before.

    I do keep some buckets closer than others, so I’m more likely to pick those up when I have free time;

    Drawing

    Designing fidget toys

    Electronics project C
