Episode 254 of the CMP, a Creativity Matters Podcast – A Field Note-style Flipthrough

In this episode of the CMP, a hands-on flip through of the Sketchnote Handbook by Mike Rohde (talked about in Episode 251: Sketchnote). Curious about the odd sequencing? I recorded this show several weeks ago, but then the end of the month rolled around, and it felt like the goal-setting show had more urgency. So I put off finishing this show up. Since I recorded this with 254 as the number, I decided to leave that intact. Sorry for any confusion!

The Flow of Episode 254 (and relevant links):

• Episode 251: Sketchnote (go listen!)

• Sketchnote Handbook (by Mike Rohde)

• The Sketchnote Workbook (by Mike Rohde)

• Mike’s site / Sketchnotes

• Sketchnoters included in the book — find them at Instagram or Twitter. (I lost my list in between recording and posting, so I’ve gathered the names from the show and looked up at least one place in which you can find/follow each Sketchnoter.)
