Book of Mormon reading charts

Introducing some simple LDS scripture reading charts, starting with the Book of Mormon. They’re available in PDF in nine different languages for now (Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Thai), with more to come.

Pedigree charts

Genealogy on the computer is nice, but sometimes you just want to write things down on paper. I’ve put together some minimalist pedigree chart templates for that purpose (downloadable as PDFs).

Standard and 2x (since you usually don’t need all the space the standard chart gives you):

And landscape, if you need more horizontal space:

Enjoy.

Project tracker PDF

For those who liked the project tracker, here’s a PDF version (I’m now calling it a project tracker instead of a project calendar):

project_tracker

You can print it out, fold it up, and carry it in your pocket, or post it on your refrigerator or desk, or three-hole punch it (there’s room on the top margin for that) and put it in a binder. You do have to fill out the month, days, and days of the week manually, but there’s a little more flexibility this way.

Project calendar

ProjectCalendar01

It’s a project calendar for keeping track of (a) which projects I’m working on and (b) when I’ve worked on them. That way I can easily see where my time is spent and possibly where I need to adjust things. (“Looks like I’m neglecting my writing. Time to fix that.”)

I started out using the back of my Field Notes notebook, since it has a handy grid, but I ran into a problem: when I finish the notebook, I no longer have my project calendar with me.

Enter Google Spreadsheets:

ProjectCalendar02

The grey boxes mean that the project has ended. Each month is its own sheet, which keeps things tidy. (Projects that end don’t need to be on the next month’s sheet.)

And the best part? It’s super easy to maintain. I can just copy and paste the black boxes, and when I start a new month, it only takes a few seconds to clear out the boxes and change the days of the week.

Speaking of tracking things, I forgot to blog about my writing log (which I used to use back when I was writing more frequently):

Writing Log

I’m also planning to make a grid-based log for scripture reading and family history and other church-related things I want to do more diligently.

Update: You can now download a Google Docs template of the project tracker.

Another update: There’s now a project page for this.

Latin declensions chart

Almost exactly six months later, the Latin declensions chart (which I first posted about back in May) is finally done:

Latin Declensions Chart

You can download it for free in PDF from the Latin charts page.

Update: I’ve made Latin conjugation charts to go with this.

Latin declensions chart WIP

I’m starting to do some more language-related design work and thought I’d post a sample. This is part of a Latin declensions chart:

The colored part prints out darker, by the way, so it’s not quite as bright as it seems here.

Anyway, there’ll be more soon. I plan to focus on basic grammatical charts, though I might do some simple vocab lists and short texts as well. We’ll see — if you have any ideas or requests, let me know. The final charts will be released for free in PDF.

Update: I’ve finally finished the chart. It’s available on the Latin charts page. Enjoy!
