I know many developers that blog, or have ever thought of blogging. I’m in that group as well.
But the people I know that have turned writing into their full-time gig is a lot smaller.
Luca Rossi belongs to that group and he comes on to share how he started refactoring.club, how he optimised his process and also what challenges he faces: ivory tower writing, solo perspective and being a liability to name a few.
I’m happy to have had such an open and honest conversation with him about his process, learnings and these challenges. I’m sure you’ll love it!
Enjoy! 🎙
