But, you know, I feel conflicted, because the last portion of the year is rushing at me super fast 😅

Small Web September is very much in the spirit of March Meta Matters, because I really enjoyed that event and I like the format of having regular prompts and check-in points where people can share their progress, thoughts and challenges. So, over on smallweb, there'll be five check-in points for people to join in, chat about their small web projects, give advice and troubleshoot, and hopefully achieve some cool things! Here's what the schedule will look like:
