In February 2012 I signed up for Tumblr, a popular blogging site. Hearing the horror stories of Tumblr being a massive time sink (they were right) I decided to make a bit of a project of it. I made a decision to post a doodle everyday, all while tracking my process.
It has now been over a year I have managed to post over 450 doodles on the site. I started this project so that it would force me to do some drawing every day. There have been some bumps in the road, I stayed around the day 100 mark for almost 250 days as I lost the drive to continue. However at the start of 2012 I made a new years resolution to 'catch up' on my doodles before I hit day 365 and I manged to fully catch up on day 364.
While it's certainly not the most professional use of a social media site I am still proud of what I have achieved. As someone who tend to drop personal projects due to distractions or work I find it amazing that I have continued to do this for so long. I intend to keep going, I have no idea when I am going to stop. Presumably when I get bored of doodling. Considering I've been doodling my whole life, I sincerely doubt that will be anytime soon! c:
