What I’m up to Now
What I’d tell you if we hadn’t seen each other in a year.
- Out of work. Cloudflare laid me off, and I’m not in a hurry to start another corporate job. I’m working out whether I can build my own tools and go back into business for myself instead.
- Getting Napkin live. As much a practice run as a product. I want to find out whether I can make a thing that people will pay a little bit for.
- Getting this website live. It has been a dream and an ongoing project for years. Running alongside it: learning how to run a business in 2026, which is turning out to be a subject of its own.
- Fixing up the Warren. The kids’ rooms first, finished and painted. Then, with any luck, I move into my own room and stop sleeping on the floor.
- Planning the next trip to Amsterdam.
- Not starting anything. No new hobbies, and not much time given to the ones I have. They’ll keep.
