I’ve written over 130 blog posts this year.  And the year isn’t half over yet.

Last year, I wrote 15 posts.

I’m still writing.  But it’s not getting any easier.

That’s not exactly true. 

The posts are difficult to write in the evening.  Which is when I usually write them.

If I get them written earlier in the day, it’s much easier.

The hard part about writing in the evening is that I second guess my topic. 

I over think it.

Which is silly.

Because the purpose of this exercise is quantity.  Not quality.

It sounds counterproductive.  But it’s true.

My average posting last year was once a month. 

It’s difficult to improve on any skill if you’re only doing it once a month.

But when you’re doing the work every day or almost every day, it’s hard not get a little better. 

And even if you’re not getting better, the sheer volume of effort is likely to produce something good occasionally. 

So, I’m going to keep on chugging for now.
