On test plans that survive their first sprint.
Four sections, every month.
A small, predictable structure. No surprise sponsor blocks, no AI-generated padding, no "8 things QA leaders need to know about" lists.
A working story
One short note from the current workshop or the desk — specific enough to be useful in your own work.
Gently held
A short essay on something we've changed our mind about, or want you to. Disagree freely; we reply.
One thing to read
A paper, blog post, or a chapter of a book that earned its place this month, with a paragraph on why.
Upcoming sessions
Workshop dates, open seats, and a peek at what's being prepared behind the scenes.
"I write the letter I would have wanted to receive as a senior tester. Slow, considered, occasionally funny. Read it on a Friday afternoon, not on the subway."
