# Let’s talk about your project

Want to contact a WordPress developer about a role, a build, or something you are
stuck on? Send a few sentences. I read everything and reply within one business 
day (ET).

## Write a note

Name, email, and a few sentences are enough. No pitch deck required. This form goes
straight to my inbox.

I only use this to reply. No newsletter.

What to include

## Three things that help

You don't need a spec. These three make it easier for me to reply with something
useful.

### Who you are

Developer, learner, shop, or agency. One line is enough. It changes how I reply.

### What you need

A URL, a snippet name, or a sentence about the site or plugin. Skip the long brief.

### When you need it

A rough date helps. If you are only asking about code, say that — no timeline needed.

After you send

## What happens next

A fair picture of how I use this inbox.

### A real reply

I write back within one business day (ET). If I cannot help, I say so.

### No ads or social retainers

I do not run ads or social accounts. Example sites live on this site.

### Public code stays free

You can copy repos and snippets without writing. A note is kind, not required.

Questions

## Before you contact a WordPress developer

Short answers about what to send and what happens next.

What should I send?

Who the site or app is for, what it needs to do, any sites you like, and a rough
timeline. A paragraph is plenty. You do not need a finished spec.

How fast do you reply?

Within one business day, Eastern Time. I read every note myself.

What happens after I write?

I reply with questions, or an honest no if I am the wrong fit. If it is a fit, I
send a written scope and a rough timeline before any work starts.

What do you build?

WordPress sites, plugins and tools, and full-stack web applications. The About page
describes each one, and the Projects page has live demos.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes. I take agency overflow and silent sub-contract work. You keep the relationship,
and I build the WordPress platform, plugin, or integration.

Can I ask about a full-time role?

Yes. I am open to full-time, contract, and freelance work, remote or on-site. Hiring
managers can ask for a private walkthrough of employer work under NDA.

Do I own the code when the work is done?

Yes. You own the domain, hosting, database, and code. I leave a short admin guide
so your team can run the site without me.

Where are you, and when do you work?

I am in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and I work Eastern Time. I work remote with shops
and agencies anywhere.

What if I only have a question about a post or a repo?

Send it. Questions about a journal post, a snippet, or a GitHub repo are welcome
here too.
