We'd love two things.

Our book, Laravel for the rest of us, is published on November 19th. https://laravelfortherestofus.com.

This isn't a technical book.

It's a crafted guide around the world of Laravel and web-development.

A handbook for managers, CTOs, founders and those who have founder themselves in the Laravel orbit.

It's a chance to find out what words like Horizon, Eloquent and Scout mean.

From the moment we decided to publish the book, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with the profits.

I reached out to Zuzana, explained the concept and that we wanted to donate all profits directly to Larabelles

Duncan McClean, is one of the most talented developers to have worked at Steadfast Collective.

Now a core member of the Statamic team, i'm delighted he was an early reader of Laravel for the rest of us.

As well as providing some excellent feedback, he had these kind words to say.

Perhaps it's time you start treating guests to your website, like guests at a restaurant.

I just stepped off stage at BrightonSEO, where I had the chance to share about crafting landing pages that convert.

It’s exhausting.

People are looking more-so than ever for community.

Last week, we hosted an event with Stripe at their HQ focused on fintech in London.

We had over 280 people respond... the waitlist was growing by the hour.

People are looking to learn, meet and share their ideas - give them a space to do so!

At school, I had a speech and language therapist.

I struggled with writing, spelling, speaking, anything to do with words.

My English teacher in secondary school didn’t believe I was dyslexic.
