Bye November
A Monthly Reflection from the Void
“Plans are useless, but planning is everything” - Dwight D. Eisenhower
Another month down, and the grind never stops.
These are the highlights that defined my November as both an artist and an entrepreneur.
Art
I’ve been discovering some amazing free creative assets from these websites that I’ve been using in recent cover arts I’ve made for clients.

Music
I’m still working on my album working title “Genesis”
It’s gonna take some time till it’s ready because I want it to be my best project yet.
I made this beat the other day that I kinda like, so I’ve been writing lyrics.
Honestly I think writing and recording is going to be the hardest part of putting this all together.
I’ve never been all that great at either as I’ve mainly been focused on my production my entire career as a musician.
I’m excited to see this project come to fruition.
Reading
Wanted to share this one.
It hit deeper than anything else I’ve read this month.
There were times where even I fought for closure but the author is right.
There’s no such thing.
This one’s a great find for fellow artists, graphic designers, or fans of public domain works.
Poke around you might find the inspiration for your next works through this article like I did.
Media
Been progressing through the Final Fantasy Tactics remake.
As well as NEO: The World Ends With You.
The former being one of my favorite games from when I was a kid and the latter being the sequel to one of my favorite games I played as a kid.
Other than that just been killing my youtube queue and also been watching Hillsdale’s course on the rise and fall of rome
Life
I turned 27 this month.
And with that came a a heavy moment of reflection.
“I need to stop being charitable to bad faith actors”
Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of my words and actions be twisted by bad actors.
People who don’t have any desire for the truth or even care about what right and wrong.
People captured by convenience. Blissfully ignorant and willfully blind.
I’m getting too old for this…
Stay Blessed,
Void
