Initial Blog Series Plan: Start From Here
This is the first series on the blog — a soft launch to guide readers from wherever they are now into a more intentional space.
It gently introduces who I am, why I’m writing, what I’m building, and who this is all really for.
This series helps current followers (Twitter, IG, LinkedIn) feel curious enough to keep reading — while laying the foundation for long-term alignment with my ideal audience.
🎯 Series Goals
- Set tone: calm, honest, thoughtful, creative
- Reintroduce myself and my purpose to the audience
- Build trust through honesty and clarity, not hype
- Start shaping “The Aligned Dev” identity in the reader’s mind
