Organizing Daily Blogging

An old trick used by syndicated columnists for newspapers is to write a number of columns in one sitting. Bloggers use this too, and if you search you can find discussions of it.

Good writing tools facilitate this. Scrivener, for examples, has folders in which you can place individual texts. Make a folder a month’s worth of writing and the project a years worth of writing. With that kind of organization, you can write your posts days or weeks in advance.

To keep things fresh, you will want to write a few posts that are contemporary to the date of publication rather than general topical posts. But, this approach to workflow can smooth out your work and your life if you are planning to post regularly on your blog.
