Before we begin... I want to draw your attention to:

It's My Birthday

Yes, I'm 42 today. I'm older than you probably thought but still young enough to enjoy creating this Newsletter.

Each Beer helps me create more content.

1 short story that makes you think.

Birthdays – Today’s my birthday. Another lap around the sun — and like every year, it made me reflect a little.

Birthdays as a kid felt different: big build-ups, presents, parties. As adults, they’re quieter. More about moments than milestones.

But maybe that's a good thing.

In business and content creation, it’s easy to chase the big days — the viral post, the huge launch, the massive win.

But real growth? It’s built in the quiet seasons too. The everyday work, the unseen progress, the small wins that add up before you even notice.

You don’t need fireworks to be moving forward. You just need another lap, another piece of work you’re proud of, another connection made.

Think: Are you waiting for a big moment to feel like you’re growing? Or are you celebrating the quiet, steady laps that are actually getting you there?

2 examples of incredible content.

1/ Let's Eat Grandma

Grammar was always tricky for me as a kid, but with ads like this and tools like Grammarly - it's a bit easier.

2/ Your Last Ad Ever.

Advertise the fact you don't get any more adverts ever.

1 great video I know you’ll enjoy.

Want to create a landing page by just having a chat with some tools? This is a nice video to get started.
