Not only do I love coffee, but you’re helping me continue creating new content.

Wish List:
I would love to have the option to purchase a new computer to continue creating content for my subscribers. My current iMac is 7 years old and has seen better days. It’s become slow and unresponsive when using newer apps, which makes it difficult to record new videos. I appreciate everybody that has bought me a coffee in the past, and I will save all my future donations towards a new computer for me to pay it forward and continue teaching on YouTube.

Fantastic beginner series of video tutorials. Perfectly explained and paced as I was able to follow along without too many mistakes. Thank you.

[kimberlywlewis]

YOU make it all seem so do-able! Thank you!

[davet]

Thank you so much ! I bought Publisher a little while ago but really struggled to find my way around and find out what the tools did etc. I had a look the programme's own tutorials and that was only slightly helpful. You explained all the tools and what they did, then used that to illustrate how to utilise it in a brochure. A great way to learn. I now feel so much more confident to make a start with this Publisher.

[billtuckwell]

I am coming off of Illustrator which I have used for years. Looked at various tutorials and some are just good, but so vague. You cracked this in the first 10 minutes., All the bits to get you started correctly and clearly described. You have answered a lot of silly production questions quickly, which others have missed. Thanks. I have saved you for further reference.

[azariahsfibrearts]

Thank you for the great tutorial. I feel confident moving forward in my projects now!
