I’m not really a draft writer for the blog, I just post when I can. I have a TON of posts in my head that I’d like to write. Normally they come to me as I sleep, which is a bummer because they are always deep and awesome, and of course if I get up to post them I will end up with no sleep .

It’s been good to read your posts after a long silence. Personally I tend to just write when I have time. Sometimes I start writing something and don’t get time to finish it so I’ll save it in draft or I’ll save a draft with just a heading to remind me of an idea but mostly I don’t really use drafts. I mainly draft in my head but then don’t get time to actually sit down and w3rite so they end up going unwritten. Something I find useful is the post scheduling feature as it means that if I have a day where I write a few posts then I can space them out a bit more evenly.

One of my goals for my new blog was to write drafts and be patient, but I’m usually so eager to publish, I don’t take the time to properly revise. Gotta work on that!

I am not a drafter. I rarely even do outlines unless I am writing a LONG paper for school. My brain just doesn't function in outline-mode. I have also found that drafts aren't usually a good idea for me as I end up altering too much on the draft. I will go back through and check spelling but otherwise I have found its better to trust my "writing gut". I don't set aside time either. I have to be in the "mood" to write well so I just do it when that mood strikes me.
