Issue #53 - Sindre Sorhus and One Year Anniversary
I can’t believe I’ve written a newsletter every week for an entire year 😅 Indie Dev Monday is like nothing anything else I’ve ever created. I didn’t know many indie developers when I started this. I knew almost nothing about the indie developer community. I’ve never felt qualified to write. But I love learning. I love networking. I love a challenge.
I didn’t have any expectations for Indie Dev Monday. I didn’t know what I was creating. I didn’t have any goals. But I kept with it. I found an amazing community. A community that always wants everyone to succeed. I found new indie developers. Developers that I follow and interact with daily. Some of these developers are now my best friends 😁
Indie Dev Monday started as a little side project. I wanted to learn about the indie developer community and test my writing skills. Indie Dev Monday turned into something more. I didn’t expect it to be some people’s favorite newsletter. I didn’t expect it to be the reason people look forward to Mondays. But every time I get told this from subscribers it brings a tear to my eye 🥲 I love knowing that Indie Dev Monday can bring a little joy into what’s been a pretty dark year. Indie Dev Monday has been one of the things that personally helped me get through the long pandemic year.
I wanted to do something big for the one year anniversary. The featured indie developers needed to be celebrated one more time. I can’t thank them enough for answering all of my questions.
