Back on track

Many times in the past few weeks I have had an itch in that area of the brain where “you know it’s right” feelings come from.

I have been lacking both on my blog rhythm as well as on my commitment to the cause, whatever that may have been… and just like Neo awakening for the first time on the Nebuchadnezzar, it’s been a painful rehabilitation. But now the new world has begun to take shape and that itch is there for a reason - it feels just right.

We have started the ball rolling and only time will tell if it was in the right direction. So from now on, this blog will also tell of our ups (and downs) as we re-shape our world with two new online activities.

The copywriter has changed forever and everyone I have come into contact with through this medium and beyond has played an important part in reshaping my beliefs and redirecting the course of events. This is no small private illumination, this is a full-on re-activation of everything I had promised myself I would accomplish.

So for now, it’s back to the drawing board.

I am starting to map the lesson program of my online language course -  I need to produce one thousand grammar modules before I go any further. So far I’ve got 380 down so there’s still a long way to go, also because once I’ve logged all 1000, I then have to reorder them, modify them into a coherent whole and produce video material for each and every one. And that’s before I get to writing the support material.

It’s a major challenge, particularly as I’ve been sitting on this idea for 10 years now. In fact for that very reason I’d go so far as to say that it’s the single most complex project I’ve ever been involved in in my entire life. But the web is the right medium (as Ken Robinson would say) and now is the right moment.  Seeing it come to life is simply magical.
