More about the blogging plan--making it up as I go along

It's that time. It's early in the morning, though my children are likely to rise from their beds at any moment. I've made a list of things I want to get through today, everything that came into my mind to distract me in the early hours this morning, hours that I'm afraid were not quite early enough. An hour and a half is so little time to collect my thoughts.

I don't collect them. It's more like I settle down into them, at least, that's what I'm telling myself this morning.

I think I'm going to start following Rebecca Brown's plan, in which the blogger shoots for two to four blog posts a week instead of trying to get something in every day. My fear is that this won't go the way that Brown (among others) describes. Two to four well-written blog posts per week? Well-written and spell-checked? The idea is that you can put more time into a post, focus on producing a more polished (and consistent...consistent?) product that will mean more to your readers than five to seven slap-dash posts every week. But here I am typing this out only an hour and a half before my self-imposed deadline.

Yup, that's me.
