I just received my first royalties from @leanpub for the #GoatsBook
https://leanpub.com/goatsbook/

I used most of the funds to clear my Leanpub backlog/wishlist. :) If you have a book there and just got a sale this could be why.

Strategies should be Strategic - not a required listing of content topics (Milestones, Method, Specifications).

Testimony on my #GoatsBook:
"The idea of using #WardleyMapping to combine test approaches with business goals in the same model looks very promising. Both as a workshopping tool and for communicating the choices on what to focus testing on.
If you are a fan of visualizations and modeling I can highly recommend Jesper's book. It is a quick read but there is a lot of insight and references to further reading packed into the relatively few pages." https://leanpub.com/goatsbook/

Wrt #WardleyMapping Stoo & Conrad was discussing “I'm understanding the basics of mapping, but never tried to build a map” - it’s a journey, and that is ok :). I started in 2019ish, here are some of my first posts on the topic:
