Doubling down on the obvious thing might not be the easy play anymore. I’m trying to figure out the best way forward in terms of creating prose on a daily basis. Spending more time producing short content for the weblog is always the easy way out. It’s a 15-20 minute commitment to just put a few thoughts down and move along. Right now my efforts are more aligned with producing weekly content. Part of that is that my weekend writing routine is very strong in terms of taking the early morning hours on Saturday and Sunday to create content. Moving back to a more consistent daily writing posture might require making a change in my routine. The best way to make this happen may be switching up my scheduled writing time from first thing in the morning during weekdays to the evening just before bed. Right now I have that time reserved for listening to an audiobook, but it could be easily swapped out for about 30 minutes of solid writing time before falling asleep. 

Today is one of those rare days off during the week where I can elect to sit down and spend some time writing and watching the Curse of Oak Island: Drilling Down this morning via the on demand feature of the cablebox. This writing effort was powered by an extra set of espresso shots this morning which just seemed to move everything into the next gear this morning. Over the course of the last few days I have reset my staged posts for the Lindahl Letter so that we have 2 ready to post and 5 that are currently drafted. Beyond that set of working posts I have a backlog setup for weeks 194 to 236 of topics under consideration. One of the things that probably needs to be done is really kicking the tires on that backlog and refining it to be the best possible set of topics. I’m pretty sure that a few gems are hidden in the Google Keep notes I have taken that need to be incorporated into the backlog during the refinement process.
