Writing Days
Brainstorming
I personally am constantly brainstorming and starting drafts, jotting down notes for topics, and making mental notes for future articles. There is always something new I want to share whether it be something new I read about, a new project I am working on, or something amazing I discovered. My mentality is if it is useful to me, if I think it's amazing and cool, then someone else must too.
Sitting down and Writing
Actually writing....only happens once a week though. Maybe even once every other week. It really depends on how many articles I ended up with the week before.
Publishing Days
I personally had started with posting articles once a day but slowly increased to an average of twice a day due to the volume of content I was creating. Easily, I could cut back on the writing and focus on my projects and studies more but I have always had a passion for writing and sharing.
What about you? How much do you write each week and how far in advance do you prepare your articles?
Happy coding!

I usually don't finish a post until 24 hours before I intend to publish (I'm a perfectionist 😅) but I have 6-10 drafts in queue. Some are topics that I need to prune, others topics I need to invest more time with. 2-3 of them will be posts I focus on in the short term.
I come up with article ideas and then put them into Notion. I green light the ones that I want to work on and usually complete them in a day or two if they are short. Or over a few weeks if they are long article. It takes much longer to complete articles that are heavy in code because they tend to require a lot of testing and you have to build an app sometimes.
