I often do Year End “Year in Review” content, sometimes lil short videos, sometimes more elaborate posts.
This year, I’m going with an old fashioned post about it.
It wasn’t a good year. As 2024 comes to a close, I had found myself using phrases like:
- Like a train wrecking off a broken bridge falling into a shark-filled tornado
- I’m being the executioner and executor of my dreams
- I understand that the car is on fire, but we’re driving out of a forest fire and can’t stop to put it out.
Sadly, “Spare Brained Ideas” as a company is coming to a close.
There are a few things to know about what happens now:
- Book sales (and writing) are temporarily halted until further notice
- No more classes are available
- The Licensing App will be moving to a new publisher, but remain a free, community solution
And the last bit of news I’ve saved for last, as I’m making a big gift to the community for Christmas:
Data Braider will now become a free, open-source solution, also becoming a community project.
There’s a lot to get set up for this, so it may take a little time, but in the year ahead, expect some more blog posts and streams about this big change.
