Every day, I set aside some time to update my weeknotes. I aim for ten minutes each day, though there are days where I don’t get any writing done at all, and on some days I write for 30 minutes or more.
I have a rough template that I use for new weeknotes. It comprises the following:
- Quick thoughts (single paragraph)
- Shower thoughts (single paragraph)
- In-depth thoughts (multiple paragraphs each)
- Entertainment (movies, games, books)
- External links
The stuff I write during the week can be very rough, because I brain dump a lot. In Bear (note-taking application), the app I use for writing (week)notes, I highlight anything that needs to be written, rewritten, expanded upon, reworded, revisited, deleted, or otherwise needs my attention.
On Saturday, I take the time to get everything into a mostly publishable state, resolving anything that is highlighted and thus still needs attention.
On Sunday, I do a final editing and proofreading pass, and hit the proverbial publish button.
