End of the year status - 2018

It's just me.

No guests, I thought I'd give them and myself a little vacation.

But then I saw someone mention that the end of the year, is a good occasion to look back at the year that's passed, and maybe celebrate your wins.

Now I am super bad celebrating my successes. There's a voice inside me that says that if it can't be perfect, it shouldn't be done at all. You should definitely not be showing off something flawed.

So this whole podcast is me trying to overcome that feeling.

I deliberately try edit as little as possible and plan to edit as little as possible.

Because if I record two hours of conversation, I can spend the rest of the week trying to figure out what the best parts are.

But now I'm forcing myself to publish and iterate.

Notice my mistakes, and do better next time.

Because I want there to be a "next time", I'm simply enjoying talking to people in all areas of the industry too much.

And it seems that you enjoy it too.

Just before the latest episode, I saw that the total number of downloads had passed 1000 downloads. And that's just since August because I switched hosting platform.

That really warms my heart and make me happy.

Obviously, I'd love to have millions of downloads, but it feels good to know that this little project I started because I missed creating something in relation to video games has found an audience.

So I want to thank all of you listening right now. Thank you, I mean it.

And thank you to all the guests who make it possible. Without them, I would have nothing.

I have a lot of plans for 2019, and hopefully, Player Characters can grow into something even bigger.

So let's aim to grow those 1000 downloads by 100%

That's 2000 downloads in six months, meaning by the end of 2019 - we should hit 5000 downloads.

That would be absolutely phenomenal!
