While I have over 900 posts on my blog, going back as far as 2004, the last 365 posts have been published in the last 365 days. To be honest, I wasn’t sure how long I’d keep up the daily blogging habit, but it’s a year in and going strong.

If you have the desire to start blogging regularly, here are some posts that explain a bit more about why I’ve been doing this and how to get started yourself.

Some thoughts on why I decided to start doing this.

Get Writing in 2021

WordPress Editorial Calendar plugin
A great (free!) plugin that I use to help lay out my blogging schedule.

Sharing the posts I write
My daily plan (at least at the time) for sharing posts after they’re published.

365 are behind me, but the ideas are still piling up and I don’t plan to slow down anytime soon. If you have a blog you’ve been writing in lately, please share it in the comments below so I can check it out.
