Quick Update: The Hub is (Almost) Here—And Kieran Coded Half of It

Finishing the events feature and importing everyone this afternoon. Hang Tight.

Quick update because I’m caffeinated, excited, and running on that specific brand of energy that comes from finishing a massive project. I’m even a day late in pushing “publish” on the October issue of Indie Author Magazine.

The Author Automations Hub is basically done.

I spent the last few weeks “vibe coding” the entire platform—which means I had Claude Code and ChatGPT5 on call like a a team of super nerds while we built this baby with a terminal window, dry shampoo, and copious amounts of coffee. Events, tutorials, workflows, the community space—all of it. This afternoon, I’m wrapping up testing and importing all of you into the new system.

And here’s the thing: I’m genuinely excited about this. The interface is clean, everything’s in one place, and it actually works the way your brain wants it to work. No more hunting through old emails or trying to remember which platform has which resource. It’s all there, organized, accessible, and ready for you to actually use.

Should be live any minute now. (Okay, maybe a few minutes. Let me finish this testing first.)

Also: Kieran arrived a week ago.

He’s perfect, obviously. Already built three websites and mastered the art of the 3 a.m. GitHub code push. Kid’s a natural.

More soon—including your login details and a proper tour of the Hub.

P.S. If you’re already a paid subscriber, nothing changes except you get access to way more cool stuff in one convenient place. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading, now’s the time—because I haven’t had time to change the price from $7 to $39 yet.
