  This made me smile, as I’ve been a bit unproductive for the last little while. :) I often find that setting tough deadlines (e.g. “write this in an hour”) and racing my own expectations helps me finish things faster, so it was nice to see this.

  By the way: are the paintings from the DS? If so, what game / program / homebrew is it? I can’t find it and am very excited by the idea.
