Day 1/100 Days of Writing: The beginning

Personal experiences with a product's mini-ecosystem

Thursday 1 September 2022

This planning process actually happened during stream, where I made all the following decisions and set up a workflow on Trello. Here lies my first tweet.

Roughly, items I will post will consist of:

• Articles: technical stuff on my Lady of Code blog, self-development stuff for System You
• Newsletter: personal ^ including above stuff [Links, Atlantis, challenge, pun/joke]
• Twitter threads: writing tips, summaries of articles/topics
• Writing drills (as a break)

Side goals:

• Launch System You (so that means design + launch alpha)
• Prep newsletter content months in advance

Some rules:

• If I haven’t looked at how to improve my writing, default to posting every Wed for a Twitter thread
• Newsletter post at least once monthly
• Article post at least once monthly; drafts I can do in chunks whenever

Some starting deadlines:

• Sep 2nd — 1st Article
• Sep 9th — 2nd Article
• Sep 9th — Writing article drafts
• Sep 2nd — First article
• Oct 1st — Newsletter

Blog updates:

• New categories (self-development)
• Add captions for images
• Check alt text field for images

The plan is expected to evolve over time, as these things usually do. Thanks for checking this out and let’s hope I stay consistent with this 100 Days Challenge as well.

Good luck to everyone!
