Learning Curves

Pacing Myself… Learning One Major Thing Per Day…

With Steph being gone, there are a number of things I just never got around to learning over the last number of years. (Sort of like many of you with copyright… Sorry, too easy…) She just did the tasks in her wonderful way.

Today I learned, with the help of Chris York who has better eyes than I do, the inner workings of Zoom and recordings for webinars and so on.

Plus today I did a couple covers in InDesign (Canva is a coming learning curve for me…) and also put most of a collection together to get ready to put into Vellum.

And yesterday I learned that my brand new Mac4 with its stupidly small screen will not handle 2 extra screens no matter what the specs say, or what the fine techs at Best Buy say. Lisa Silverthorne (IP expert) and I tried a bunch of stuff, including downloading a program that should have made it work. Nope, and it is not the ports or the wiring.  So I gave up and took one screen down to the WMG office and now my computer down there has two screens and this business computer has two screens.  Good enough. Three hours plus of my life I will never get back.

I could have done five book covers in those three hours… sigh…

And I got a 3-T hard drive hooked up to this computer and I am working to get everything here backed up.

So I am on a tech learning curve and honestly having a blast. I know, I am weird, but I just love learning. Sort of like a sugar rush. Too much at once would kill me, but one learning curve a day is wonderful to climb over.
