My schedule can vary quite a lot from day to day. As of this writing, I was swamped yesterday (and will be tomorrow), but today was much more quiet so I was able to catch up quite a bit. In trying to publish every day, these kinds of days are essential. As I’ve mentioned before, I’m on a great streak of publishing every day, even though I don’t necessarily write every day.
In thinking through that, it’s because I’m able to set a good cadence to most of my weeks, even if my days are much less predictable. As the title says, I find time in the week, not in the day.
Next Monday
My goal is to end every weekend with posts drafted through the following Monday, so at least eight in the queue. I generally accomplish that, but what happens during the week varies wildly. Some weeks I’ll be able to write five or six posts before the weekend, other times virtually none and I’ll have to hustle to make up time. As long as I find time somewhere in the week, I’m good.
I hope at some point to have time to literally write every day, and I suspect I’ll get there in the next 5-10 years, but for now I’m grateful to be able to find time in the week to make the days go smoothly.
