An Emotional Picture Book

Life Is Short. Life Is Difficult. And Life is Beautiful.

happy friday!

This past month I asked a number of people to submit something about emotion: a difficult hardship they've experienced. A lesson they've learned on people and life. Or a poem about perspective or feelings.

I also asked them to describe a picture. I then created a picture book with their stories and images. You can find the e-book here and the hardcover book here.

On the cost:

  • The digital book is $5, which is all profit.

  • The hardcover book is $25 with 20% of it being profit.

All of the profit I donate to the UCSF Children’s hospital here in San Francisco (specifically, at Mission Bay). The money is spent only on one thing: something that kids care deeply about and that brings them happiness. At the top of that list lies Fortnite V-Bucks or Roblox Robux.

The book came out great in my view and it was fun making it! Now onto the next project.

  • rotated my investment portfolio given recent market volatility and going ok so far

  • researched some biotech companies

  • still looking for “my life’s work”

  • Loved this song these past few weeks: Afterglows by MYRNE

  • Enjoyed eating at this Korean restaurant in the Richmond district in San Francisco

    No Res Needed I believe; waited 5min on late weekday evening

‘Til next time,
