Being a founder is difficult work. It is frustrating at time hopeless and only for a lucky few worthwhile. Sometimes in your darkest moment you need a balance between cheerleading and reality. Other founders who have walked that path and shared that door with you; Other stories with different endings to help you keep you sanity.
Jessica Livingston at Y-Combinator manages to do a bit of both. Her choice of companies, founders and objective narrative keeps the cheerleading at bay but at the same time gives you enough courage to see the end of one more day. And sometimes that is all what you need. The softcover edition is out and is priced under 15 dollars on Amazon right now. It is a much better read than my 19 dollars copies of Reboot. Go grab one.
Founders at Work, Jessica Livingston
