This blog post was inspired by two Twitter followers: Tanny McGregor who introduced me to Sketchnotes and Dan Meyer who made a recent post about tips from presenters: http://blog.mrmeyer.com/2017/presentation-advice-from-14-of-my-favorite-presenters/. 

Here are my tips--in graphic form!

Reminds me of Giulia Forsythe's Visual Notetaking -- and before that a developmental writing student years ago who asked if she could sketch on her rough drafts because writing was hard for her but drawing easy. Of course I said fine -- the point of a draft is to get it down with whatever works for the writer. The draft was delightful. Permission to mix drawing and writing opened up her writing. I suggested she include sketches with her final version. Illustrated essay! Wonderful! When I started blogging a few years later, that was a definite influence.

Hi Brian,
I really like this. I have not tried SketchNotes because I feel I'm not a good illustrator. This has stopped me from trying out this way of taking notes. Seeing what you did here is making me rethink this, so I will give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration!
