Year in review 2024

A little meta commentary on the past year of writing here

Notes on the year

30 weekly updates written. Better than 50%, but really fell off towards the tail end of the year. The goal for 2025 is to get as close to 100% as possible, allowing for the inevitable ‘life gets in the way’ moments.

25,547 words written across 30 weekly update posts, plus another 2,000 or so in standalone posts. With a more consistent posting cadence, this would have been actually pretty close to the length of a short novel which is kind of cool.

The combination of using Micro.blog to host, Obsidian to write in and the wonderful micro.publish plug-in to post is a lovely little workflow that I will be sticking with. Micro.blog is my go to recommendation for someone who wants a very simple, low cost solution to own their own space online.
