    If you use a Mac, snapping windows sucks, but here’s how to solve it:

    Download "Rectangle."

    Now you can snap windows sideways, up, or any angle you set.

    It’s free. It’s open source. It’s amazing.

    I did an interview with Nathan Barry

    where we talk about who is making money with newsletters. Also: 
    - Setting up “Creator Flywheels” (important!) 
    - ConvertKit marching towards a billion dollars 
    - Tectonic shifts in SEO in the last 3 years 
    - Best platforms with the best audiences

    I understand over zealous management killed off WeWork, but I am a bit saddened by the WeWork collapse because I've had WeWork offices all over the place and loved them.

    Lots of fond memories and connections created at WeWorks...

    WeWork's always represented to me:

    • A place to go with friends when you didn't want to go to a bar.
    • Work late nights.
    • Go to events.Get free food & drinks from said events 😬
    • Acted as a "3rd Place" where everyone knew your name.
    • They always were kept super clean.
    • Internet was always fast. Great bathrooms.
    • Good coffee. 

    Sucks they crashed and burned.

    I’m thinking about starting a blog about researching the history of my early American ancestors. (My mom did a bunch of genealogy research which I’d like to breathe some life into and do a series of deep-dives.)

    Specifically, I want to write about their lives and hopefully visit their graves around Virginia and beyond. Interestingly, if other Americans have pre-colonial Virginia (and Massachusetts) ancestors, there’s a good chance my ancestors are their relatives too.

    And if I’m really industrious, I’ll write stories from these ancestors’ perspectives, using the historical elements of their lives.

    I don’t see many early American people-specific content online (aside from famous politicians and historical figures) and really want to share the stories of ordinary and unknown but extraordinary Americans.

    Hope you’re having a great autumn, Neville. Early happy Thanksgiving! 🙂

    P.S. Still disappointed about the greenroom snakes. I might imagine they were really there after all and you simply didn’t want to let the secret out about your epic greenroom experience. A girl can dream anyway! 😉
