I'm entering the next iteration of my writing habit, making it valuable. It was a happy coincidence that I came across this on hacker news yesterday. The author suggested a video to watch, which I'm only half way through but has made some shift in the way I thought about writing. Primarily I write for myself, but it could be a nice bonus if a few more people got value out of it. I knew I would have to look up ways to make writing more effective, but I intentionally avoided it in the early stages so as to keep things simple. The aim early on is to do simplest version of the thing daily. Fortunately, after a while of doing anything consistently you get an urge to do it better. My focus will be the next tiny step I can take to write a tiny bit better. As I enjoy writing, I don't want that to change. But I think there is way to achieve both with a little bit of experimentation and playful exploration.
Also, I'd like to write more silly stuff. I rarely have a useful insight and most of the time, they are just pure garbage. So, if I can stay silly I might be able to explore more ideas. That might be true for both programming and writing. All in good time, I don't want to rush it. There is a consistency to the whole process at the moment. And I think that is more valuable in the long term. Kinda like a Bob Ross painting. He keeps it so simple, yet the end result just comes out of nowhere. He also seems to be enjoying the process. I like him.
That's it for today, I guess. Have been distracted by a teenage Python in my backyard this morning. The snake catcher wasn't able to find it. So I keep checking outside every few minutes to check, if it's popped out of it's hiding place.
