My totally paranoid way of working

Not 'paranoid', 'psychotic'. However, she's cute AND nerdy, so I'll give her a pass on the bad terminology.

Her 'process' for design is pretty much exactly why I'm not a designer. At all. Some people can find that inspiration quickly and bang out 3 drafts of a site in no time. Instead, I follow her pattern and agonize over it for hours or days before finding some small spark that gives me an idea. It's just too painful to go through daily.

Thanks for keeping me in line, wccrawford, I always mix them up :)

I hear you - I often question my motives. I simply cannot come up with so many ideas for the same thing at the same time.

But when it works, it's awesome.
