After Adderall
Overprescribed, Unraveled, and Rebuilt from Scratch
What happens when the thing that made you productive takes everything else?
For years, Adderall seemed to offer exactly what I wanted: focus, energy, and the ability to keep working. Then the work began consuming the life it was supposed to improve. After Adderall follows the ascent, the isolation, the promises to stop, and the months when even opening a laptop felt impossible.
This is a personal account of coming apart and slowly finding a way back. Through marriage, ordinary mornings, and small pieces of work, I had to confront a question that success had let me avoid: if the pill was gone, what was left of me?

AiBook
A human survival guide to the AI era
An engineer’s field guide to getting real work out of AI.
AiBook brings my hands-on experience with language models and agentic tools into a direct, irreverent guide to the AI era. It moves from small models, context, and fine-tuning into agents that use tools, work together, recover from failures, and finish what they start.
The practical thread is simple: prove the work. Chapters tackle fabricated citations, misleading tests, broken handoffs, memory, observability, and the difference between a convincing demo and a system you can trust. Dip into the problem in front of you, then go put the lesson to work.
The mistakes, risks, and improbable turns behind ShoeMoney.
Before the companies, the conferences, and the books, there was a long stretch of figuring things out the hard way. Written with Kate Sprouse, The ShoeMoney Story traces my path into internet entrepreneurship with the same candor that made the blog my home.
This is the story behind the public milestones: taking chances, finding opportunities other people missed, making expensive mistakes, and learning to keep going. It is an unfiltered look at the person behind the name, and the decisions that changed my life.
You are always practicing something. Choose what it is.
Every action is a repetition. So is every decision to do nothing. Winners Win explores how the habits you repeat become the person you are, using the language of games to make that hidden process visible.
Character sheets, boss fights, co-op play, and experience points become practical ways to examine your choices. The “rep rule” gives the book its center: train the behavior you want to make automatic, take responsibility for the next move, and pay attention to the game you are actually playing.
An inherited amulet. A hunted bloodline. Two missing daughters.
After his father’s funeral, Jeremy receives a brass amulet and discovers that his family’s past reaches much further back than he imagined. A bloodline has been hunted since 33 AD, and the secret order Custodes Fidei is still determined to erase it.
When his daughters disappear, an ordinary life becomes a race through four cities and four pieces of proof. Ancient history, religious secrets, and a father’s desperation collide in a fictional thriller that borrows my name and takes it somewhere entirely different.
Earn the opt-in. Understand the person. Write the next email.
An email list is a direct relationship with your audience. This guide breaks that relationship into three practical parts: Bait, Persona, and Sequence. Give people a reason to join, understand who you are speaking to, and plan what happens after they subscribe.
Expanded from the original guide, the book covers lead capture, email copy, and a twenty-day follow-up sequence. It is a working framework for turning scattered sends into a deliberate conversation with the people who chose to hear from you.
I’ve spent my life making things, breaking things, and figuring out how they work. Software. Companies. Communities. And sometimes, myself.
Writing is how I share what sticks. Some of these books are practical guides. Some are deeply personal. One is a conspiracy thriller. All of them come from the same curiosity that got me started.
“Students love me. But most of all, I love educating.”
That’s why every book here is free to download. If something in these pages helps you take your next step, it’s doing its job.
