Fun Catalyst

This email from a client I'm advising on a learning game project made my week:

Hi Ron,

Following your advice, we changed the story of the game entirely, turning it into a funny mystery game (the mystery of the c------ thief, aka The C------omaniac). I'll tell you all about it on Monday, when I'll also send you a written outline of the new story.

I can't wait to tell you about it and hear what you think.

I think a Skype conference would be the best choice too.

Regards,

R.

It made me feel great to see the shift from low energy from following a safer route at the cost of fun and creativity for this corporate project, to it being more enjoyable for the client, and more importantly, their clients!

I'm also glad to be using Skype increasingly with clients to keep telecom costs low (how's ZERO!) You can download it and use it for free - give it a try if you haven't yet.
