Weird Field World - digital book Full colour 88 page science fiction book written and illustrated by Rob Turpin.Weird Field World, Rob Turpin’s first book, tells the story of how humanity breaks out from the boundaries of their limit...

A little reminder that my sci-fi book, Weird Field World, is available as a digital download.

It's 80+ pages of spaceships and world building. And I'm very proud of it. Book 2 is, still, in the works.

A photo from inside a bakery. A man (the owner, Jason) stands behind the counter, which displays a collection of different crusty breads. There is a Christmas decoration reading “Joy Noel” on the glass counter top, and an inflatable Santa on the back wall. Chalkboard behind Jason  list sandwiches and bread prices in Japanese

のくちーず (Nokucheese) is a bakery recently opened in Mizonokuchi. The name is a terrible pun: (Mizo)noku~chi ➡️ noku~cheese 🤦🏼‍♀️ The crusty bread is amazing 🍞and tricky to find in Japan. Nokucheese was recently opened by @jason.jagaimo.com who I know… which is also surprising 😂

I keep thinking “maybe I’ll write another one…” but I’ve kinda realising I should probably focus on short, practical mini tutorials instead. But at the same time…

5000 copies! That’s amazing. But it should be double that because of how good it is!

Deploy Empathy: A practical guide to interviewing customers Buy Deploy Empathy: A practical guide to interviewing customers by Hansen, Michele (ISBN: 9781737446606) from Amazon's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Oh that's right, it's Black Friday!

Buy my book for cheap, or don't.

Kindle is $€£ 5 bc it's nearing 5,000 copies sold!

I'd set the paperback at that price, too, but I'd make negative money so Amazon won't let me. So it's $€£ 9.99

Phoenix LiveView Weekly A weekly newsletter with all the latest Phoenix, LiveView and LiveView Native updates, news, articles, libraries & components.

I started phxlvweekly.com for #ElixirLang Phoenix & LiveView news a couple of years back but then started a time-intensive Ruby gig and couldn't find the time to do write a good post each week. Since I've finished that contract and am back on the freelance market, thinking I'd love to resurrect.

MailPace - Transactional Email Provider and APIMenu Transactional Email API service

We use mailpace.com for sending transactional emails. Except I can honestly never remember their name - they changed from ohmysmtp.com years ago and I *always* remember that and go there and get redirected. Was a _much_ better name if you ask me. mailpace is so generic.
