This is my third day in Fredericksburg and I’m self blocking and annoyed with myself. Between the lack of power and rainy weather in Enchanted Rock, I wasn’t able to get any postings together and I’m not happy about it. I don’t like having material piling up, which it all too often seems to do so I get frustrated with myself to the point of not wanting to do anything.
Grrrrr.
Luckily the motel I was staying at was comfortable and affordable so I opted to stay there a few days to edit – that would be the Day 350 and 351 postings. I have to keep reminding myself that a major focus of this trip is to make as many short documentary videos as possible, experimenting with various narrative styles and techniques of finding and recording subject matter.
I need to push myself to make as much content as physically possible without worrying how it will come out or what it looks like in order to grow. Failing = not doing, not what is done 🙂
I also think my computer is dying 🙁
The screen has been scrambling, my editing software has been crashing and an increasing number of random restarts.
Additionally, there are very few places to get a Mac fixed between here and Phoenix on the route I’m traveling. I may need to head back to Austin or San Antonio to get this sorted out 🙁
