Melon’s Newsletter #6 – August 2022
Hi {name}! I hope you had a great August (Long live Caesar Augustus \o/)! Mine has been a mixed bag, its been too hot and Iv been exhausted! Do you ever feel like you’ve just been running too long and your stretched thin? Thats ok though because its part of the process, it means that it’s time to find a new fountain of youth; lest ye become stuck and boring.
Ok so, story time! Last year when you were but a twinkle in my newsletter subscriber lists eye, and I had money, I ordered a Playdate! Well it finally arrived!
Its a really cute little doodad that does stuff, I talk about it a little here. It can even play weird dithered videos which I recorded for you. Anyway, Im happy with it, maybe it’s a reminder that the freshest things are often the ones that are the least logical. So my challenge for you this month is to not be logical :^D
We are 2/3 of the way through the year now and I know you must have been doing so many cool things, I hope they are going well, and if not I know if you just keep going you'll get there! You can always write if you like, let me know if you want a response and I'll try my best :-O
MeLoN NeWs :^]

~ New Site!
