Hi — Rodney here.

I’m writing for Australian uni students who feel like the system is set up against them — which it often is. Every week or two, I send one practical piece about study techniques, AI tools, rubrics, or the mature-age student grind.

No spam, no upsells, no marketing automation nonsense. One email, from me, about one topic, sometimes with a recommendation at the end.

You can unsubscribe with one click any time.

Why subscribe instead of just checking the site?

Because algorithms change, traffic disappears, and new articles get buried under older ones. If you’re on the list, every new piece arrives in your inbox on the day it goes live, without you having to remember to check.

It’s also the only way to hear about anything I’m testing that isn’t live on the site yet — beta features, draft articles looking for feedback, that kind of thing.

What happens after you subscribe?

You’ll get a one-line welcome email confirming your subscription. Then the next time I publish a new article, you’ll get it in your inbox within a few hours.

No questionnaires, no onboarding drip sequence, no “pick your interests”. Just articles.
