  • Blog Post #23: The Tail End

    When I first started this blog, I created a road map for how I was hoping this endeavour to turn out. The first time I tried creating a regular blog, I ended up telling a ton of people, getting 20+ people signed up, started pumping out content, and then…. two weeks later I missed my…
