Daily Again
I stopped.
My reasoning was straightfoward.
I want to write more longform.
Are the quality of my posts suffering because of the pressure of getting something posted every day?
Could I change my posting schedule — fewer posts, better quality?
I wrote a little. But I didn’t write a lot. There were a couple of long pieces od mediocre qaulity. But consistency is the missing piece.
Consistency is the necessary piece.
Consistency is th key.
Last weekend I listened to a podcast interview with Austin Kleon (of “Steal Like An Artist” fame). He said this about his daily blogging habit:
“If you work every day, just by the law of averages, you’ll produce good stuff. You might make 30 crummy poems but then the next month, you’ll make one good one. And then you have a really good poem.”
So here are the new rules.
A daily post, knowing most will not be great.
Some will be good.
A few will be worth passing along.
Mondays post will be long(ish) form experimentation.
Welcome back. The blog by a Quiquagenarian writer who is working to become an author. It’s mostly about leadership development and creativity — and sometimes global culture and coffee.
I’m going daily.
Ive started.
Again.
