The first week’s material is not available yet, but it is only 5.45am. Fortunately the stuff will be available Monday (Australian time) so I won’t have to wait until tomorrow. The CGSociety is run by the Ballistic Publishing people I think, and they’re in South Australia, not California, seventeen hours behind.

Naturally I’m wondering what the secret to being productive is. What advice have I seen in the past? Steal ideas? Stick with stereotypes? I’ve seen plenty of comments that productive people don’t waste time trying to be creative. There’s even a well known saying that ordinary artists borrow ideas, great artists steal them. I think there’s an important part of being human that I lack. Pragmatism? Aggression? Self-interest? Common sense? Robert said that the latter is important in deciding what to illustrate. Unfortunately I lack all of them.

Midday – Looks like today’s not the day after all. No course material yet. Just checked the email – it says Monday morning GMT. Guess I have another 10 hours to wait.
