I’m talking about me! 👋

I’m writing TILs and ready for a next step. I tried a micro blog but it didn’t “fit.” I do have a website with a blog, but I’m looking for something between a TIL and an actual post on my blog. Thoughts?

@lacey I’m having this same problem and have thought about trying to get a writing cohort of some kind together. @CodenameTim put something like this together at last year and just one morning helped me a ton to get some writing done. If that sounds at all like something you’re interested in let me know 😄

When I say "lightning talks" is there a particular conference lightning talk or lightning talk session that comes to mind for you?

Doesn't need to be your favorite talk/session, but just one that comes to mind.

Link me to it!

Thanks @ehmatthes for inspiring this question.

I submitted my final talk proposal! If you're still working on yours, you have ~53 hours left to submit.

That said, I'm on Team Submit Early simply to avoid timezone confusion.

New Post: So you want to give a talk at a conference? https://ryancheley.com/2023/12/15/so-you-want-to-give-a-talk-at-a-conference/

When I gave my talk at last October I got some really good feedback about how polished it seemed, especially for a first time speaker. I even got interviewed by @kjaymiller about it!

I wanted to write about my process to give an idea of how I did it, just in case it's helpful for anyone else looking to give a talk.
