Essential Career Advice for Developers
Last week, by popular request, I posted my top 10 essential career tips for developers. The response and comments were great and so I instantly went to work on fleshing the 10 keys out more with practical advice. Today, I'm excited to share that I've made the first draft available, which is now around 4,000+ words long, for free via Google Docs.

Today, I’m excited to share that I’ve made the first draft available, which is now around 4,000+ words long, for free via Google Docs. As I’ve done with my recent books, I’m asking for your help editing and shaping it to make it better, clearer and more helpful.

The 10 keys are:
