So many people are hugely helped by music. It can remove distractions, get your mind going, and it just makes things less boring. Everyone has been talking about Pandora for a long time, but I never got around to trying it out. Turns out that it's perfect for what I use music for. I want music that I haven't heard before, don't have to choose, and that I can control the genre/general sound of depending on what I want to hear. And it's so easy, you just set it going and it plays until you're done with it.
You can choose whatever you want of course, but here are some good electronic stations:
Fytch
Kill The Noise
Far Too Loud

How To Paint Everyday
I ran across The Daily Spitpaint recently through DeviantArt, and I like it a lot. It's a great habit to paint something everyday, and they provide the fuel. I haven't posted any of my work, as they're really just drills of doubtful quality, but it's impressive what some of the other participants have made in only thirty minutes.
How To Easily Track Comics on KickStarter
I've been looking at comics and graphic novel projects on KickStarter for a a long time now, and it gets more and more irritating that there's no easy way of seeing them all as they're posted. At least there isn't within KickStarter. But as soon as I figured out what I wanted I figured out how to do it.
http://www.kicktraq.com/categories/comics/latest.rss
This is a third party site that tracks KS projects, complete with data and RSS feeds. What we want is the RSS feed URL for the "Comics" section.
https://blogtrottr.com/
And this is a site that translates RSS feeds into periodic email updates. Simply take the RSS URL from KickTraq and paste it into BlogTrottr. Add your email address and choose your update frequency (I have mine set to every 12 hours, it work well for me) and you're good to go. Both sites are free.
I've only been using this a couple days but it's working perfectly and I'm loving it.
