For the past few years, I’ve been writing a monthly newsletter for Brush Ninja. It was alright, but something always felt off. I struggled with what to say and why I was saying it. Late last year, it all became too much. I decided I needed to shake things up and turn it into something new.
A Fresh Focus
I mostly create side projects. Some of them catch on, like Brush Ninja, and become main projects. The internet is bursting with side projects that deserve more attention. We often get stuck in our website silos, just scrolling through social media and searching on Google without truly exploring.
Back in the 90s the web was a wild place. You could stumble upon all sorts of weird and unusual websites. There was even a website called StumbleUpon that helped you do just that.
And that’s when it hit me: I wanted to show that the web is still full of creativity and inspiration. Much like my side projects, there’s so much more out there waiting to be discovered.
Sharing Hidden Gems
I’ve got a long list of apps and websites I’ve tried over the years. So every two weeks in the Ninja Sparks newsletter, I’ll share one app or website that stands out to me. Alongside that, I’ll include links to creative articles I’ve foudn and videos I’ve watched.
If these things resonate with me, then hopefully they’ll inspire you too.
