Donations

I (Karen Smiley) host 2 newsletters here on Substack:

All of my Substack publications operate on the “Wikipedia model”. New posts are FREE to all to read. My work is sustained and supported by positive 😊 and constructive 🤔 comments, hearts 💟, and shares!

As announced on June 25, 2024, here are new ways to further support my newsletter writing on Substack with voluntary donations and tips. If you have the means and the interest in helping me grow these newsletters to reach and help more people, I will be so grateful!

Note: Some organizations will pay for newsletter subscriptions like mine as part of professional development. Try asking your manager!

Update 2024-07-12: The agileTeams newsletter has been merged into karensmiley.substack.com, mostly under the existing agile section. New subscriptions on agile topics should be only started here.

Update 2025-01-15: I’ve set up a Ko-Fi account and switched the link above from BuyMeACoffee to Ko-Fi. (Both are active, in case you prefer one over the other.)
