Mindless Rubik's Cube Solution

I started making this book in fifth grade at the suggestion of my dad. He said I was spending too much time cubing and gave me the idea to start a book about how to solve a Rubik's cube. The vision for my book was to make a completely visual Rubik's cube guide that allowed anyone to solve a cube by following the pictures, just like a lego manual. I used a really old version of Photoshop to draw the cubes, and Microsoft PowerPoint to make the book. I worked on this book on and off for approximately three years, and self-published the book on Amazon right before starting eighth grade, on June 24, 2018. I thus became a "published author" at the age of 12. I do not recommend that anyone buy this book for the purpose of learning how to solve the Rubik's cube because a free video tutorial on YouTube does a much better job. However, I am still proud of this book and see it as a work of art. This book can be thought of as a novelty item and a milestone achievement of my life.

U.S. Design Patent USD989072S1

The design patent protects the "ornamental design" or the layout of the keys and shape of the board of the Uni by StenoKeyboards. I personally drew the patent drawings. I learned a lot about how to draw design patent drawings. I learned that solid lines in a drawing means it is protected and dashed or dotted lines means it is not protected. Others cannot copy the solid lines, but can copy the dotted lines. Here is a link: https://patents.google.com/patent/USD989072S1
