The very best of luck - I know that is a bigger task than it sounds on paper.

I tried something similar back in November. Personal experience is that it is a lot of hard work to maintain momentum and creativity. If I have one tip it would be to try to have a stock of several articles on the go so you can write and polish and review with a gap between rather than trying to do one article start to finish each day.

Will look forward to seeing and reading articles. If nothing else you've inspired me to go back and write some more for Dev rather than just lurking and reading.

Hey Mark,

thanks a lot.

Yes, I think after the initial momentum, it will be crucial to fight through the downtimes and lazy days, therefore I've made a note for myself & I will try to build a small (!) stack of articles, thanks for this tip.

I am glad that I could give you inspiration so that you will write more again. I really like your articles about self development & hyperfocus.

Thanks very much @miku86 - I'll see what I can do. I'm enjoying your gentle bite-sized articles on using node as a command-line tool.

So many node scripts do so much it can be hard work to unpick exactly what is going on and it is nice to see it built up the other way round.
