That's right! Not just any blog posts - Troy's best blog posts. In addition, Troy has added an introduction to each post, detailing his inspirations and adding a few "behind the scenes" moments that led him to write the post in the first place.

There are also epilogues for each post too - detailing what's gone on in the years between then and now.

Finally, the best comments on each post were curated as well - sometimes that's the best part of reading a blog - watching the comments light up!

This book is much more than a simple collection of posts...

How Did You Select The Posts?

This was Rob's job. Originally the plan was to select 4-6 posts in 4 different categories: building a career, the rise of Have I Been Pwned, Speaking and public stuff and finally balancing public life with private life.

So Rob spent 3 weeks poring over Troy's blog and picking out what he reckoned were the most impactful posts - the one's with the most value, honesty, and the least fluff - and then he assembled them according to a theme.

As the book came together, however, it became apparent that it read much better in chronological order, so we adjusted things, tossed some older posts out and added a bunch more in to fill out the timeline. All in all we ended up with 34 total posts!

You might thing "well I can just go and read Troy's blog then right?" and yes you can - but the combination of these posts with the introduction and epilogues absolutely transforms the experience. We wouldn't be doing this if we didn't think there's value!
