Writing

  • Collating materials for my next book, and actually putting it all together.
  • Doing that, in part, by Blogging again, sending a weekly general newsletter and various, daily popup newsletters with different topics for people who choose to opt in for any of them.
  • Mentor / co-writer with a first-time author, to deliver his manuscript to large US publisher.
  • Re-learning to use the command-line, and particularly enjoying grep.

12 Week Year

  • Following the guidance of the 12 Week Year book, with weekly goals, accountability calls, and weeknotes.

Unoffice Hours

  • Opening up my calendar for 1-to-1 Zoom calls with anyone who chooses to book the time1. That could be you! We can talk about work, compare notes about an idea, or whatever.
    One 30 minute slot each week. Wednesdays, lunchtime UK.

1 Unoffice Hours. The idea to do these 1-to-1 Zooms was inspired by Matt Webb, whose own experience doing this (starting in lockdown) sounds fun and worthwhile.
