In January, I posted every day. Here were the themes:

I brought my podcast back. I kept it in season 4, which is about the lessons I’m learning while writing a book about tech debt.

• Write While True Episode 44: Write In Public
• Write While True Episode 45: Gather Your Work
• Write While True Episode 46: Write as Yourself to Yourself

Writing every day is part of my marketing strategy for the book. I outlined that here:

• My Content Strategy for Selling a Book
• Applying My Book Selling Content Strategy on Sites I Control
• Applying My Book Selling Content Strategy in My Communities
• Applying My Book Selling Content Strategy to Social Media

I wrote a bunch of articles about Code Review. I had written If code reviews take too long, do this first in December. Here are some follow-ups.

• How to use Code Reviews to Prevent Bugs from Getting Into Production
• How to Find Bugs in a Code Review
• I had written before that authors should do more work beforehand to get PRs reviewed faster. This is along those lines: Write Test Plans for Every PR (and do them)

I did a series of 3 posts about how to triple the number of posts you write:

• Triple the number of blog posts you write
• Triple the number of blog posts you write: Follow-up
• Why Even Triple the Number of Posts You Write

I wrote a few posts about AI

• Can non-programmers make applications with AI?
• How to be avoid being replaced by AI
• Evaluating the Evaluators
• Why ChatGPT Works Better for Newbies than StackOverflow

I’m also proud of this toot:
