Why subscribe?

Dane’s Newsletter is a field journal packed with ideas, lessons, and observations drawn from actual experience building and marketing products, exploring wild places like national parks and rivers, and not losing your soul in a chaotic world.

All posts aim to be thoughtful, earned, and grounded in real work or life experience. Short when concise will suffice. In depth when diving in is required.

No noise. No filler. No AI slop.
