Produce! Produce! Produce!

Today! I'm gonna take a different approach. My workflow is rigid and messy. I save content to a file as to not lose it yet I can still lose the file among thousands of files, file types, drafts. I write today from the admin site. I built it, it should works for me. The site wasn't made with me writing in it mind, as other features took priority and writing applications already have cool writing features. This site for the most part just posts to a server and gets accessed online by you the viewer. If this new work flow works greats!; but it also couldn't.
I also like creating content but friction or discipline from the thousands of files, file types, drafts required to give it any semblance of structure are obstacles to be dealt with every-time I (publish/post) something. I bask a little bit with the small win saving myself the effort it takes to edit what I do; even if the current editing is already at a minimal. After all, my writing has improved just from the practice, which I consider a positive outcome. Improving my writing was a goal I set out to get and here it is. My writing is still meh! but it could also be just a function of time, editing, audience. I write content as an outlet or maybe with certain conditions I actually enjoy writing.
There are so many unique expressions and variations to drive writing to. For example, from a software background the notes I use (square brackets, curly braces) work for me. Unknowingly to me, I used to have difficulty as grammar in my mind wasn't "standardized" I used curly braces, highlighter and different colored pens to mean "list of items" or "Important note here!". I got myself all twisted straight from the get go.
On top of that, I write from a keyboard I assembled and painstakingly lubricated every single key; it clicks! and it clacks! and I love it! A keyboard is a tool I use, so improvements here are noticeable!
I introspected as I do and decided drawing logos, calligraphy, are what I gravitate to and I enjoy doing it, so I will. And I did! And it was the "oomph!" needed enough for me to write some more as I've been a bit ill. I may also do more calligraphy so I have a backlog of different artwork, I admit it can be quite repetitive but it takes significant lift to generate anything meaningful so small improvements is what I aim for. I think it works!
