You would have thought I would have known better by now. I've been doing this blog for years and yet I fell for a very beginners trap, of not having enough material banked in case of an emergency.
The last two days have been crazy at work and at Scouts, well, that's really just excuses. I could not get to the computer to write a post for this blog on Mondays. Regardless, I have committed to making posts each Monday and I should have.
The way you make sure you can post on a set schedule despite any eventuality is to have a cache of material which I do not have.
I tend to get so excited when I write a post that I don't hang on to it, I post right away. Also, I've set Mondays as posting day and writing day. What I should do in this case is to write two posts each Monday. That way I will have one to post and one to bank.
I will make sure I do that going forward.
What I am going to do next is go through the 30 Days of Worldbuilding exercise I went through before. This time I promise a story on this site exclusively. My plan is for a lighthearted, serialized story. I will do several, "Days" at a time and when I have gotten far enough along, when I write a post for a, "Day" I will also write a part of the story.
Just a slight preview, there will be a country called Penoa (located between Finland and Sweden) and another called Anoitoia (a floating island actually) the last colony of Atlantis.
I will, this week, post a second post (to help make up for a lack of a post Monday) to review the last poll and introduce a new poll. What would you like to see on that poll?

I just have not set my self the goal of writing on a set schedule. This is a good idea though.
