Oops went off on a tangent again. Anyway, I don't pre-schedule posts. I know it would be more logical and it would save time, but I actually write my posts right before I post 'em. Yup, like a diary. It works for me so I stick with it. I find that the direction I want to take with this blog is to keep is personal, and for me to keep it personal, I write from straight from my heart with no real thought or time to change things up.
I don't really proofread my posts because I like to keep it real. What you see is literally what I am thinking at the time. I do think about topics to write about as they come up in my daily life though. When my BF and I are talking about certain things, I'll say "ooh I should blog about that" and then write down notes in my notebook. I am a great listener so everything I hear throughout the day, I will use those thoughts that I am thinking and write them down for future reference. Sometimes it works with what I want to talk about on here, and sometimes it doesn't. I have a notebook that I carry with me all the time and I use it for many, many different things. I write down my daily spending, items that I want to buy, items that I have bought (to keep me accountable on what I have already spent), my to-do lists, grocery lists, directions, and just other general thoughts like content for future blog posts.
In real life, I'm very scatterbrained...but with my notebook, it allows me to put all my thoughts down in one place. Sometimes I forget things, but I'll remember once I look at something that I wrote before. Also, I write out some titles in Blogger and come back to them later. I'll usually just write how I feel about that topic when I finally decide to write about it.
My question for other PF bloggers this week: How do you blog? Do you write all of your posts in one day and scatter them throughout the week? Do you write them as you post? Details people! I'm highly interested :)
